We like to take a little detour through Queens to hit out-of-the-way-but-worth-the-trip Dutch Kills before we make our way home to Chicago via La Guardia. That ritual makes this cocktail the perfect final peek at tomorrow evening's Fan Fiction: American All Stars menu!

Fan Fiction: American All Stars!

We had a lot of fun at last month’s Logan Square Fan Fiction, where we collected cocktails from our favorite neighborhood bartenders and made them all available in one spot. You seemed to like this one stop bar crawl, too, since so many of your joined us to drink up for some great causes.

As we nursed our hangovers and wrote out the checks for charity, we started talking about our favorite cocktail bars around the country. Inspiration struck in the form of an American All Stars menu. It’s happening this Tuesday, October 23, and we’ll be making the recipes we’ve gathered from some of the best bars around the country. And tell your conscience not to worry—our contributors have also named their favorite charities, and to we’ll be contributing 25% of the evening's sales to some great causes, just like last month.

Stay tuned for the next few days as we whet your whistle with sneak peeks of the special menu, beginning with this delicious selection from Boston, Massachusetts cocktail bar, Drink.

Bar: DrinkBartender: Josey Packard | Cocktail: Johan Goes to Mexico - Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, Angostura Bitters, Lemon, Demerara | Charity: Tequila Interchange Project
