Cocktails-R-Us

Jessica Verdin and Emily Olive toured the town to taste Boise’s best signature cocktails—it’s a tough job, but somebody had to drink it!

Ladies lunch at THE LIVELY with colorful cocktails. The deep purple is on the menu of temperance (non-alcoholic) offerings and called Profit & Loss. Their Greyhound’s Tooth gives an orange swirl to a tradition!

THE CHATEAU in Eagle offers an extensive sampling of superior wines, including their own Rhogani Vineyards private label. Enjoy a brie en croute and their crisp Chardonnay in royal surroundings.

Who doesn’t love a fresh strawberry margarita with dill pickle garnish? Find this mouthwatering libation and a cooling, cucumber martini at THE NOOK in downtown Boise.

CHANDLERS may be famous for steaks, but their award-winning, ten-minute martini is cool and slow and perfect, neither shaken or stirred.

A classic Harvest Old Fashioned is a “must taste” at TRILLIUM restaurant in the Grove Hotel. Not to be missed is their signature cocktail, Pear N Dippity.

Baby, it’s cold outside and a Roasted Pear Martini at ANTHONY’S will keep you warm. Happy hours are always tasty with the freshest Northwest oysters and a Champagne Kir.
