Cocktail recipe: Straight and Marrow's Rise of the Phoenix includes lapsang souchong, passion fruit, and more
Straight and Marrow bar manager Chad Rivard is sharing his cocktail recipe for what he calls his “summer banger”.
After being temporarily closed due to pandemic restrictions since March 29, the restaurant and bar in Vancouver’s East Village reopened on July 1 to full capacity.
“This complex twist on a Pisco Sour was created as a return-to-service summer sipper,” Rivard explains. “As our restaurant rose from the ashes [from] being shut down, this cocktail came to be.”
