For this edition of Bottoms Up!, what better place to sample cocktails than Triniti — the hot new restaurant with the triad representing sweet, savory and — our favorite — spirits.
The 5,400-square-foot restaurant showcases an open kitchen, beautiful commissioned artwork, eye-catching chandeliers, a chef’s table and a community table, all with views of the kitchen.
The glass walls, cement floors, wood furnishings and casually elegant light fixtures give the lofty space a casual yet polished feel. Triniti features progressive American food by executive chef Ryan Hildebrand, with its core menu changing seasonally.
We went behind the bar with mixologist Briana to learn how to make Triniti's featured cocktail of the month, the Garden of Eden. Light and sweet, this violet drink looks as good as it tastes. Cheers from your friends at CultureMap and Triniti!
For the Garden of Eden Cocktail, you'll need:
1 oz Grey Goose Poire
3/4 oz Creme de Violette
1/2 oz St Germain Elderflower Liquer
4 dash spiced lavender bitters
3 drops orange blossom water
Top with Stellina di Nota Prosecco
The spiced lavender bitters, orange blossom water and Crème de Violette are available at Spec’s and Richard’s.
