If you’re seeking a boozy sugar rush, this Little Italy stalwart is your best bet. The extensive drink list features 130 different martinis and cocktails made with sweet fruit juices and hard liquor. The Cosmic Girl is a classic blend of vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice and lime juice. The perhaps more masculine (albeit just as sweet) Coolade Guy is made with orange juice instead of lime.
