Sweet Liberty

"Oh, sweet, sweet liberty," is the kind of thing you'll be uttering once you're three cocktails in at this hip cocktail bar that's been making a name for itself since opening last year. The SoBe watering hole is more specifically located in the Collins Park area of the sunny tourist destination. It's one-part casual, two-parts sexy, and oh, so very boozy. Order up a Collins Park (a magical concoction of Ford's gin, orange blossom, creme de peche, lemon juice, egg white, and match ) because, hey, you're in the neighborhood and do as the locals, right? Or peruse the extensive menu and do double-takes at the Basic Bitch and What What, respectively. Get yourself a fancier-than-usual Cuban torta or go straight for the skirt steak because you're on South Beach and YOLO might still be a thing. And of course, enjoy the well-curated tunes here that offer salvation in audio form (just don't forget to send me a thank you card from the bar).
