The Timely ‘Campfire’ Cocktail At Nomad On Main Street

IMG_9686

Campfire ban got you down? Don’t have an “in” somewhere in the Fog Zone? Head up to Main Street’s Nomad and responsibly drown your sorrows in “The Campfire”. This is a deliciously spicy little number of Eagle Rare bourbon, dry gin and dry vermouth complicated by ginger syrup, Angostura bitters and charred citrus. The potent, aromatic mix is then poured into a smoke filled rocks glass for the win. Balanced, delicious and timely.
