Despite a wee overindulgence earlier in the week, Deacon is still thinking TGIF and preparing for a jam-packed long weekend of shopping, visits from college friends, and of course, hot activities. Stay tuned a for the weekly "Deacon Says" column, coming later today.
But since it's past noon and officially into Friday's acceptable cocktail hour, we thought to give you a preview ... in the form of a peek at the Park Hyatt's new fall cocktail list.
I'm super excited about the Apple White Sangria, made with Big Apple Wine from Wolffer Bridgehampton and Tito Handmade Vodka (Texas), garnished with fresh apples. Deacon and M went wine tasting at the vineyard where Big Apple is made two weeks ago and bought a bottle to take home - it's great on its own ... light and fruity. The vodka should give it a good kick, as the alcohol content is pretty low on its own.
I'm also excited to try the Apple Pie Bellini and Pumpkin Martini, both of which are chock-full of fall flavors and fresh ingredients.
But perhaps the coolest thing is their new American Martini Sampler, where guests can sample a variety of American-made vodkas, each with different distilling processes and base ingredients.
If you've tried any of the new drinks, leave a note and let us know how you think they are.
