Blue Bottle Coffee



A little heat

August 12, 2010

I arrived early for my dinner at Aldea and took a seat at the bar. I wasn't sure what i wanted but knew I wanted to try something new. I saw the bar man smashing a jalapeno in a glass and decided to order a Hemingway Heat. the drink, served in an old fashion glass, has Rhum JM, with fresh lime, grapefruit and jalapeno. It was a delicious libation and the perfect start to the meal.
