Mixologist Blake Poon crafts seasonal cocktails at SoNo 1420.

LET’S GET G CRAFTY

rab a seat at the outdoor campfire and cozy up with one of SoNo 1420’s seasonal holiday concoctions. The local distillery’s resident mixologist, Blake Poon, has come up with some drool-worthy flavors using seasonal fruit and spices including maple syrup that was aged in the brand’s own bourbon barrels. Cocktails mixed with apple and cinnamon simple syrup add warmth to gin topped off with apple cider as a spritzer. Or, go for Poon’s twist on a mint julep made with locally sourced mission figs. Yum.
