The Hound Dog Cocktail

Pinhook’s riff on the classic Greyhound cocktail adds a little honey, to complement the bourbon, and ginger, to spice things up. An original creation of one of Pinhook’s founders, master blender and cocktail expert Sean Josephs, it made its debut at his first bourbon bar, Char No. 4.
