If you haven’t made your way to Greenport in the last week, then first off, what are you doing? You’re totally missing the beautiful cherry blossoms in full bloom! A walk through the streets and it’ll feel like it’s snowing delicate pink petals all around you. But there’s another booze-infused reason to head out there. Many of the restaurants and bars in Greenport are celebrating the blooming of the pink flowers with a special cocktail made just for the month long Cherry Blossom Festival. 

First and South | The Boris and Natasha

Just like the blossoms, this drink is light pink, floral and citrus-y. It’s got Figenza vodka, flora liquor made with hibiscus and elderflower, fresh lemon, rose and a splash of soda.

Green Hill Kitchen | Sakura Esplanade

GHK’s fancy looking cocktail is made from Roku gin, blossom infused vermouth, Kirschwasser, cherry blossom syrup and champagne. 

American Beech | Rye Cherry Smash

Served in a copper mug looking almost too tropical to drink, the cherry blossom-inspired cocktail has Bulleit rye whiskey, dark cherries, sugar, mint, and sparkling water to add some bubbly.
