No matter the flavor of drink, the 1909 Bar has you covered.
Atop the Coosa Cleaver, looking out on the downtown cityscape of Wetumpka, drink lovers can find all sorts of handcrafted cocktails to enjoy.
The strawberry lemonade martini was recommended by bartender Phoenix and it did not disappoint. Garnished with a fresh strawberry slice and a cut of lemon, the strawberry lemonade martini brought me back to the warm summer months.Â
Made with Deep Eddy’s vodka, the cocktail was equal parts savory as it was sweet. The vodka was not overpowered by the mix nor was the mix too strong for the alcohol. There are also numerous flavor combinations for those who don’t choose to go the strawberry route.
As with any lemonade flavored drink, there is plenty of sugar that does linger on the palate. But on a chilly afternoon, taking a sip from your flavorful cocktail makes all the cold melt away.
Your martini can be paired with another drink along the menu, or a delicious dish of mahi mahi, a flatbread or brisket mac and cheese.
Do not be afraid of the cocktail’s bright pink hue as flavor knows no gender. A solid drink goes down all the same, and this drink went down just fine.
