I haven't ordered a cocktail out in some time. In the winter I tend to warm up to microbrews and rich reds preferably by a fire. Right? But when I'm out this time of year and see a couple canoodling over festive drinks, I almost want one. So when I saw these drinks snapped by a Sun shooter yest. at none other than Cobblestones, I got that same old tinge. The friendly downtown bistro is ringing in the revelry with a bevy of drinks that could get you looking on the bright side, even in a down market. Warm up with a Hill Billie Holiday, a mix of bourbon and cocoa liqueur served on the rocks or a peach bellini — champagne with a dash of peach puree.
If you're still tempted to check on your 401k, you may want to kick back with a Boston sidecar of rum, brandy, lime juice and triple sec first.
Farther afield, I had a great champagne cocktail in Boston the other night at Mantra. Served in a martini glass, which made it more special, the rose bubbly with a dose of pomegranate juice was smooth and refreshing! What you are concocting into the New Year? Cheers!
Drink it in

Unrelated question, but wondering what happened to Subway on Merrimack St? Closed for renovations or out of business?
I think it's just rennovations. I saw a glass company putting in some new windows and some new furniture being brought into the place. Who cares if they did close anyway? There are about 700 other sub shops downtown. The only customers subway gets are the lowell high punks
