It’s great time to be alive in San Diego if you love quality cocktails and beer. Seems as if there’s a cocktail revival going on right now. Lots of restaurants priding themselves on well-made, classic, quality ingredients, attention to detail, etc. Gone are the days of cheap well drinks. Plenty of bartenders see the making of cocktails as both art and science, and anyone who has attempted to make a quality one will agree. Cocktails have a lot of history, and it’s good to see that history starting to be respected.
Tequila fiends should check out El Take It Easy in North Park. Their goal is to create classic Mexican cocktails from colonial days and back when Mexico was a playground for the rich and famous during prohibition.
