Admiralty Lounge Winter Menu 2026

The Sunbird began life as a tortured Aquavit Martini and ended up as a sexy Margarita. Who knew caraway and Aperol would work so well together? Not me. I had to google it.

  • 1 oz vodka
  • 0.5 oz Aalborg Aquavit (it is crucial that you select an Aquavit with minimal dill and anise)
  • 0.75 oz Aperol
  • 0.75 oz Grapefruit Cordial

Shake and double strain over a large cube with a gummy candy sitting on top of it or single strain on the rocks with a gummy candy jauntily hanging off the rim of the glass.
