Ward 8

  • Recipe by: Laura Sorkin

  • Servings: 1 drink

This cocktail was created in 1898 to celebrate the election of election of Martin M. Lomasney to the Massachusetts state legislature (Boston’s Ward 8, to be precise). Lomasney was a popular politician who served for 40 years, though his practices were rumored to be a little shifty. This version of the Ward 8, however is clean as a whistle, made with our new Maple Grenadine and fresh squeezed juices.
