craft cocktails
Bespoke mixed beverages
Craft cocktails are mixed drinks made with careful attention to ingredients, technique, and presentation—distinguished from standard bar drinks by fresh juices, house-made syrups, quality spirits, and precise preparation.
The term emerged in the early 2000s cocktail revival that rejected premade mixes and rediscovered classic recipes.
The menu featured craft cocktails with ingredients like elderflower and house-infused bitters.
