Top Shelf: House-Made Vodkas and More at Muse

June 28, 2012 | East End Eats

The Big O at Muse in the Harbor

Whether you want to lie back on the couches in the indoor lounge or party on the patio, Muse in the Harbor offers some interesting libations to quench your thirst.

Chef and owner Matthew Guiffrida enjoys experimentation behind the bar as much as he does in the kitchen. Expect to find interesting house-made vodka infusions, such as fresh pineapple mango with rosemary that Guiffrida infuses for three full weeks. Composed cocktails are equally creative and also focus on vodka.

Guiffrida’s Big O, his version of a vodka Greyhound, mixes Finlandia Grapefruit Vodka, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, cilantro, and prosecco. Considerably more decadent is the Peaches & Cream, a blend of Smirnoff Whipped Cream Vodka, Cîroc Peach Vodka, and orange juice—with a whipped cream topper.

If you are looking for something to really tickle your palate, the Basil Raspberry Beret has fresh basil, Finlandia Raspberry Vodka, a maraschino and Champagne Floater, and a bit of cranberry juice. 16 Main St., Sag Harbor, 899-4810
