“It’s the holiday season, so whoop dee doo” may just be my favorite line from the hundreds of Christmas carols and songs out there in rotation. As a kid, I always imagined some Scrooge- or Grinch-like character, shouting the line at happy carolers with a sarcastic tone. Then again, I was also convinced there was a bathroom on the right and that Elton John had a thing for Tony Danza. In reality, the song and its famous line are about celebrating with cheers, something I think is most properly done with a drink in hand. Thankfully, the creative bar masters, under the guidance of owner and head mixologist Adam Kanter, of Rum Bar agree, and in honor of the season have released a new menu of holiday-inspired cocktails. From time-honored classics (grog goes back to the 15th century, so I think that makes it the king of holiday beverages) to clever blends of more modern mixes, stop in and warm up with one of the limited-time pours.
