Moscow Mule, Slanted Door

The Slanted Door is a modern Vietnamese restaurant and bar located in the historic Ferry Building located along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. Both the food and bar program are internationally recognized. I have never been disappointed with anything I have ordered here. The Moscow Mule continues the trend. The extra time to press ginger juice brings out the ginger zing better than using ginger beer which is used by most places for Moscow Mules.

Congratulations to Slanted Door for winning the Tales of the Cocktail 2012 Spirited Award for Best Restaurant Bar. Well deserved!

The Drink - Moscow Mule, $11
Hangar One Vodka, ginger juice, lime, soda

Agricole Rhum Punch, Slanted Door


Slanted Door is located in the Ferry Building along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. It's a Vietnamese restaurant with a stella bar program. The Slanted Door cocktails stay true to what they describe on their website, "Our bartenders mix the perfect cocktails, bright and crisp with just a hint of sweetness; expertly crafted with the finest ingredients from small producers dedicated to quality." The Rhum Agricole Punch embodies Slanted Door's vision of their cocktail program. It's perfect, it's bright, it's crisp with a hint of sweetness. Yum!

What's agricole rhum? The rum that most of us are used to is molasses based. Agricole rhum is processed from cane sugar juice.

The Cocktail - Rhum Agricole, $11
