The Trade Winds at the Drink
From lattes to lagers, pumpkin-laced beverages abound this time of year. Few balance the flavor as expertly as this punch, which gets its essence from a freshly juiced baking variety. Citrusy Famous Grouse scotch tempers the gourd’s sweetness, while chili-pepper–spiced chai tea adds a layer of nutmeg and clove. It’s finished with grapefruit juice, which hints at winter’s crispness, and a dash of sherry rye bitters to tie the elements together. 228 Manhattan Ave between Grand and Maujer Sts (718-782-8463, thedrinkbrooklyn.com). Glass $5, bowl $43.
