The menu features signature drinks such as Strawberry Fields–Vodka with fresh strawberries Mohito-style lime; PPG Kickin Ice Tea–Teaka Sweet Tea Vodka with a splash of sour mix garnished with fresh mint and lemon and such ‘luxury’ dessert drinks as the Chocolate Martini with chocolate vodka and Baileys Irish cream or Chocolate-Covered Cherry and Espresso Martinis.

It’s all about taste and excitement,” Schwartz said. “Of course, we still stock all the popular call brands and we serve the best double-malt, triple-distilled Scotch in Central Florida,” Schwartz said.
