Fender Bender | Cocktail Party

Fender Bender

The Fender Bender, from the Hi-Lo Diner in Minneapolis, is a charming Manhattan riff featuring the sweet touch of maple syrup alongside the smoky herbals of Cynar (an artichoke-based amaro). It’s a fresh take on an old standby, and the perfect complement to Hi-Lo’s neo-retro menu of updated 50’s diner fare.

Game Changer

This is a game changer. When you're at the liquor store, thinking, "Yeah, ok fine what does Ancho Reyes liquor get me?" you open the app, look up Chile liquor and see that it gets you like 11 new cocktails. This is addictive, and indeed worth the price. We're having a blast under quarantine. While some of the ingredients are kind of anonymous, the icons look like the Campari bottle, and the descriptions often tell you if Campari will work or if you need Aperol. If you <3 cocktails, get this.
