The candy:
Root beer barrels
The cocktail: "Private Winters"
Back in childhood trick or treating days, we knew that if anyone over age 70 opened the door we should be wary of two things: diabetic candy (ugh) and those heinous little root beer-flavored candies that were shaped like barrels. (Who the hell eats those, lady?) “You’d generally get them from older people who may be a little out of touch with what the kids like,” recalls bar manager Sam Gabrielli. But he and bartender Adam Hochman have managed to whip up a tasty concoction – now on Russell’s House Tavern’s cocktail menu – that is reminiscent of the candy. And it reminds us how we like our root beer: in liquid form, like Mother Nature – or at least, a bartender – intended.
