Attention NYC folks
Sour cherries have come into season in our farmers' market. [info]parisgreen and I have been extracting sour cherry juice and making some truly excellent bourbon sours using the sour cherry juice. I wondered whether it would be possible to muddle some mint in there and basically do a sour cherry julep. I did a little web searching to see if someone else had done something similar, and hit the website for a restaurant in Brooklyn called Applewood.

Check out the cocktail menu and the dinner menu. I need someone to check this place out and give me a report. Whoever's running the bar end of things is obviously a person of distinction and character.

The clove mint julep sounds heavenly to me.

Zagat likes it. We'll check it out (at least Bob & I will) and send a report. It'll probably take a few weeks: this coming week we're booked to go back to Peter Luger with James (from the Arthur Ave. parking lot).

Thanks! We look forward to a report live from the scene. :)

Oh to be able to discover a new restaurant where I actually live. :/

I just finally learned how to do martinis this year, after 53 years of existence. I don't think I'll be up to sour cherry whatevers for quite awhile... BTW we're transitioning at NYU DL again! --Eric

I just saw the job ad on the DLF list. I take it James decided to stay in Australia?
