SHAKING UP THE CITY'S COCKTAIL SCENE
B Y E R I N M A D D R E Y
lthough Charlotte is perhaps best known as a destination for local breweries, the Queen City is
also home to mixologists who are dreaming up and serving up deliciously inventive drinks. Gone

and herb-infused ice spheres, and more in their presentations. But don't just take our word for it; get out
and try these six cocktail connoisseurs' favorite craft pours.
