A Chocolatey Cocktail Recipe From Gotham Steakhouse

This week, our recipe comes from the talented team at Gotham Steakhouse & Bar. Dubbed Golden Hour, it elegantly combines rich rye whisky, smoky mezcal, and fruit in the form of fig syrup and lemon juice. But the virtual cherry on top of this stunner is the ample amount of chocolate bitters that round the whole thing out. The Golden Hour cocktail is the best way to wind down and take in the sunset—drink and dessert combined.
