Le Booze
Seasonal, $9
A friend of mine once said a true martini has nothing but gin and vermouth in it. Le Jardin is breaking this rule with its newest specialty cocktails, including a Candy Appletini, a Pumpkin Brandy Alexander and a Vanilla Jasmine Martini. Just as well—after said friend dropped his words of wisdom, he called me his "papoo" and asked if I loved him. Le Jardin Happy Hour, Le Jardin, 251 S. 18th St., 215-545-0821.
