City Editors Bella and Travis checked out four of the eight new cocktails at Westport Cafelocated at 419 Westport Rd. Not only were our taste buds quite satisfied, we also walked away with some knowledge about the cafe itself.

The drinks

  • Our first sip was the Suze Valley Blast, a bright green cocktail that combines two French aperitifs.
  • Next was the Satisfied Mind — which features apple cider + poached pear. Talk about a perfect autumn beverage.
  • Our third drink was the Yellow Datsun, a rum tiki cocktail with egg white and a fall flavor that shocked our whole table.
  • We topped off the evening with their citrus-flavored take on an espresso martini — the Mr. Moonlight.
