At Max Downtown in Hartford, our lead bartender, Mike Mills, created this drink for the summer menu.\u00a0 He is a big fan of Russian Vodka and the way it takes to infusions, such as the pepper mix he uses for this drink.\u00a0 The depth of flavor achieved by combining three pepper elements is great and really makes this drink pop.\u00a0 The spicy note added by combining Jalapeno and pepper corns, plus the touch of spice from the Habanero shrub, play off of the fruity elements from the mango and the sweet bell pepper. \u00a0I think it is this sweet and spicy play that has really made it a popular drink among our guests, plus this drink is surprisingly light and refreshing, perfect for battling the heavy heat and humidity of summertime.<\/p>\n
