Creamy and luxurious, Sambar's Sacred Cow is one of the best menu items to come out of the new Culver City restaurant. Sloane's Gin is blended with yogurt and apricot liqueur, lemon and honey, and is topped with an egg white froth and pistachio crumble to create what feels like a tropical adult shake. $12. - Erin Kuschner
Is it just us, or was 2015 the year Los Angeles really upped its cocktail game? Omakase menus at bars became a thing. Tiki drinks regularly popped up in places other than tiki bars. Garnishes really took hold (would you like a cricket with your cocktail?). Coupled with the fact that new—and great—coffee shops seemed to materialize left and right, we had a pretty fantastic time drinking beverages of all sorts this year. Take a look at our favorite sips of 2015.
