I ventured closer to home than usual last night. We hit Sun Liquor on Summit and Mercer, a bar sandwiched between Top Pot and the Summit Public House.
My first visit to Sun Liquor was about a year ago. They were very new, didn’t have a happy hour menu, and we were the only people there at 5pm on a Friday.
Things have definitely picked up since then, as every table was full last night, including the outdoor seating.
On a recommendation, I ordered the Ducati – a pineapple, rum concoction that is dangerously good. (It’s $4 on happy hour.) They also have a number of fancy, old-style mixed drinks on their menu, such as a Pimm’s Cup.
Another fancy touch – they keep mixed nuts under a warmer just behind the bar. The nuts are free, although you have to ask for them.
Those cocktails are fabulous!
