2023 Cocktails

Editors’ Choice

Baldwin Bar, Woburn 

The drinks at this nationally recognized spot, sharing space with a Szechuan restaurant in a bright-yellow historic home off the highway, are just as beautiful to look at as they are to sip. Intricate garnishes adorn vintage glasses, laser-printed images float on creamy foam tops, and the glassware itself is unique to each drink. Cocktails are carefully balanced and usually include unfamiliar ingredients—but whether you’re downstairs in the tiki lounge or upstairs at Baldwin & Sons Trading Co., with its sophisticated overstuffed library vibe, knowledgeable mixologists are happy to guide you to drink nirvana. 2 Alfred St., Woburn, 781-935-8488, thebaldwinbar.com

Readers’ Choice 

Ledger Restaurant & Bar, Salem

Bar manager Sean Maher is continuously creating cocktails and mocktails, using house-made syrups and infusions, meaning there’s usually something new on the menu. Think a tiki-inspired, blueberry-infused rum served with falernum, cinnamon, lime, and grapefruit, or a refreshing zero-proof sipper redolent of pineapple, rosemary, and lime. 125 Washington St., Salem, 978-594-1908. ledgersalem.com
