COCKTAIL N°5

Bridgit, creative director at the Dampfwerk, has a couple of cocktails that she places on each menu launch that are unique and unlike any other cocktail that is found in the Twin Cities. Those details are usually kept internally, but there’s no need to gate-keep this recipe, as it is just that good…
