Lady Pink: the 5th Ave Cocktail

Written by Bryce

Lady Pink is one of the fab new cocktails being serviced at the posh 5th Avenue Langham Place Hotel in NYC.

Aside from being one of the chicest hotels in NYC, Langham Place is home to Measure- an upscale, chic bar and lounge at ground level on 5th Avenue. It’s the kind of place you meet a man in a perfectly pressed suit, and should you meet this man, you should be drinking a Lady Pink– a drink designed and created by Alex Kratena, the bartender from the Langham Hotel in London. Now, London is a drinker’s city, so you can count on this being delish, but Alex is also certifiably one of the best bartenders in the world, so that’s reason enough to try the recipe (or head into one of the Langham Hotels around the world to give it a try).

Lady Pink recipe (inspired by the street artist)

1.25 ounces of Tio Pepe Sherry

1 ounce Merlet Triple Sec

1 ounce rhubarb water

1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice

Shake it up in your most fab shaker (you’ll need some ice), strain into a champagne flute or other festive cup, add zest. Cheers!
