Teetotalers take note: Vernick introduces house-made sodas and mocktails.
House-made sodas at Vernick
From creative cocktails and well curated wines to wood fired wonderfulness, Vernick (2031 Walnut St.) has been setting the bar high since opening in April. Now Greg Vernick and bar manager Vincent Stipo are working on an aspect of service so often neglected: non-alcholic cocktails.
Diners choosing to forgo cocktails and wine are not to often met with anything beyond soda, iced tea or sparkling or still water, none of which are all that thrilling or particularly food friendly.
Vernick and Stipo are elevating NA drinks scene with house-made sodas and cocktails using in season fruits and herbs. On offer at the moment are a raspberry basil mocktail rimmed with basil salt, a cucumber smash with lemon and mint, and a punch made with fresh juices and grenadine, made in house, of course.
