What's better than bourbon, fig-infused red wine, honey, and lemon? All of these things carbonated in a Perlini and delivered to your table. It's called the Crimson Eagle, it was created by Kevin Bragg, and it's only available at Seven Lamps.

King + Duke

Copy Link

The open fire hearth isn't the only thing that will keep you warm at King + Duke. Try the Sherry Cobbler, make with its namesake liquor, walnut liqueur, powdered sugar, an orange slice, and a pinch of fall spices.
