Says the list of Bar Crudo:
To pair with the Italian-style raw dishes served at Bar Crudo’s daily happy hour, mixologist-sommelier Micah Olson mixes drinks like the Dazed and Infused: strawberry-spiked Aperol, passion fruit syrup, lime and sparkling wine.
And of Windsor:
This neighborhood restaurant features an elaborate DIY Bloody Mary bar during weekend brunch along with house cocktails. The No. 06, for instance, includes gin, strawberry syrup and apple cider vinegar.
Both bars also made our list of the five best gin cocktails in metro Phoenix.
