You'll find creative cocktails like "Gretchen, Stop Trying to Make Fetch Happen," which features bubbly cava, spiced cranberry syrup, sherry, and dry Curaçao.
Drop everything and try a "Maccabeats by Dreidl" made with Manischewitz Cassis, lemon, Perrier, and Sipsmith Gin. L'chaim!
"Son of a Nutcracker" is a creamy cocktail made with Brandy de Jerez, Cognac, Creme de Menthe, and Creme de Cacao. Yum!
There's a little something for everyone, from Christmas elves to Nats fans.
“While you can always expect us to feature the most decked hall in D.C.,” says special projects manager Adriana Salame-Aspiazu, “this year we're also honoring the classic American teddy bear in support of Children’s Hospital and our beloved Hanukkah concept, Chinese and a movie, with spinning dreidels, menu light up boards, and a giant menorah. The real home run, however, is bringing in the Nationals! We’ll celebrate our hometown heroes in a candy cane baseball wonderland!”
Of course, along with baseballs and candy canes, you can expect a shark or two in homage to the team's rally theme song, Baby Shark.
This unforgettable concept bar is known for its extravagant decorations, and this year is going to be no different. Check out what the decor looked like in 2018, with its panda winter wonderland and jingle bell canopy:
