"Bar Month" at OnMilwaukee is back for another round, brought to you by Great Northern Distilling: grain to glass spirits, handmade in Wisconsin. The whole month of March, we're serving up intoxicatingly fun articles on bars and clubs – including guides, the latest trends, bar reviews, the results of our Best of Bars readers poll and more. Grab a designated driver and dive in!
All month long, we'll feature cocktails from one of the newest bars on the block, Dock18 Cocktail Lab, located in the Twisted Path Distillery in Bay View.
This week, they will be featuring a rum-based cocktail that pulls in elements of both sour citrus and fruity pomegranate and apple notes. There's also a floral element contributed by house-made chamomile liqueur.
Though it's called the Lady of Rage, you don't need to be filled with rage – or even slightly angry – to enjoy this cocktail. But, if you've had a heckofa week, it might be just what the doctor ordered.
