Ms. Alice, a new cocktail bar from the team behind Hole In The Wall, opened on April 3. The bar, which bills itself as being inspired by European aperitivo culture, will offer “apero hour” every weekday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., with $12 negronis, spritzes, martinis, and more…

Ms. Alice just opened this past weekend and is the LES’s chicest new cocktail bar. I stopped in on my way up to the Daintree rooftop with an absolutely stunning view of Manhattan and currently in its soft opening phase before their full debut this Spring.

Ms. Alice is a red-and-gold cocktail bar that prices seafood towers per person. If you really want to turn heads, go alone, order a seafood tower and a $12 martini at happy hour, and be on your way for under $50. Or, you can do something a little more tame, and hang out at this Lower East Side cocktail bar with some friends. Your choice.

My favorite spritz to make at home is the Sbagliato. It’s a spritz with some elegance that is balanced and has more depth than your classic Aperol or Campari Spritz. It’s also very easy to make with just three ingredients.
