Broken Funny Bone
The Broken Funny Bone is "about as close to a winter margarita as you can get," said Connor Gillette, bar manager for The Alida, Savannah. "The nostalgic flavors of mulled wine pair well with apricot and add a dry, warming flavor to the cocktail. This ruby-hued drink matches the colors of the falling leaves and tastes just as nice, too."
Ingredients:
- 1.5 ounces tequila
- .5 ounce apricot liqueur
- 0.75 ounces mulled wine syrup
- 0.5 ounces lime Juice

Snow in the South
"A richer, less bitter variation of a Negroni. Notes of nutmeg, cinnamon, clove and coriander help round out the flavors of this classic inspired drink," said Gillette. "'Snow in the South' is the perfect drink for simultaneously scoffing at the possibility of snow in Georgia, while longing for the pristine views of a snow-covered city."
Ingredients:
- 1 ounce Nikka Coffey Gin
- 0.5 ounces St. George Spiced Pear Liqueur
- 0.5 ounces Amaro CioCiaro Liqueur
- 1 ounce Massican sweet vermouth
Cheers!
