Afternoon Cocktails at Long Bar

A late-afternoon cocktail to end the day. Or celebrate the start of limitless possibilities...

Any way you look at it, a late afternoon cocktail at Long Bar is always a good idea. Guaranteed.

The Panutsa Old-Fashioned (P 395), a personal favorite at Long Bar, with Jim Beam Bourbon and Regan's Orange Bitters sweetened with panutsa palm sugar and garnished with an orange peel, is one of the many reasons I keep coming back to Long Bar (for more on Long Bar, see my previous posts on their unique Cocktail Collab and their Signature Cocktails and Bar Chow). The distinct deep and smoky notes of the bourbon weave in seamlessly with the orange bitters and the panutsa for a smooth and soothing cocktail. Works for me. All the time.

Pair your cocktail with Long Bar's Garlic & Rosemary Sauteed Mushrooms (P 380), with the nutty notes of the mushrooms punctuated by the bold flavors of garlic and rosemary...

...and the light yet crunchy Pork Rinds (P 225), with its delectable salty notes pairing well with the Panutsa Old-Fashioned. One more round of the Panutsa Old-Fashioned, and another afternoon is made right. At Long Bar.

And leave it to Jenny to come up with a cool surprise with her inventive cocktails...

Jenny's very own creation, a refreshing bourbon cocktail with fresh lemon, ginger ale and egg white to cap the afternoon. Perfect. At Long Bar, they always remember your preferences, and you can ask them to surprise you with a cool new cocktail or try something different to get you in that perfect late afternoon groove. See you at Long Bar...
