| - On our night out on the town, I have been really wanting to check this bar/lounge out since my Vegas peeps started raving about their unique "Elixirs."
Located in the Artist district in Downtown Las Vegas parking can be found either on the street or in the small parking lot behind the bar.
Upon entering, a bouncer popped out of nowhere and asked for ID. Fair enough, as I am the first in our group to flip him my CA license. He takes one look at it, then at me and said enjoy!
For a Saturday night around (I say and only because I am taking a wild guess because we started drinking a tad early that night) that it had to be somewhere around 11:00-12:00 am. This place was jam packed with happy people sitting around the bar and in their lounge area. The DJ was spinning random electro jams all through the time we were there. Our Vegas buddy found a cozy little area for the three of us to hang out in. One over size velvet chair fit for the Princess (me::smiles ::) and two other chairs for the boys.
Vegas friend went up to the bar to get us a drink menu, now if this is your first time coming here, do not expect to have a giant list of house drinks. From what I understand the menu changes by season.
All their Elixirs are handmade and ready to order when you are. Some of the ingredients you can swap out (i.e. if you cannot drink vodka then they can swap it for gin. Just ask your friendly bartender when ordering).
Eight different choices of Elixirs all different and are made with amazing stuff. Some sour some sweet some in between! However, no matter how to mix it each one only costs $8.00 a pop.
That is right you heard me $8.00 freaking dollars! That cheap considering on the strip you are paying $12.00-$15.00 for one watered down drink!
Our bartender was wonderful; it did not take too long for him to notice me. Asked if I had any questions and if I was ready to order.
Ordered:
Brawl and Seductions- Gin + house made sweet vermouth + genpy + fernet syrup + absinthe rinse.
Chronicle of the Priest- Rye + amaro montenegro + walnut liqueur + maple syrup + salt + angostura bitters.
Bartender smiled and said great choices and went over to the other side of the bar to start working his magic.
I enjoyed watching him mix our drinks; it takes a special hand to know how to do that kind of mixology.
In no time our drinks were ready and both were filled to the brim (which I really liked) $16.00 total plus $4.00 tip = $20.00 total. Holy rabbit what a deal!
Carefully not to spill my drink and our friend's I made my way back to our area.
After toasting to an awesome night out with good friends, we took a sip. Wow, mine was strong but not over powerful. It was more sweet then sour. It was all around a tasty drink that I would have probably gone back several more times after I had finished this first glass.
Now our friend's drink was way too strong for my taste. His first sip had him saying whoa, this is strong. However, after a couple more sips it started to mellow out.
Come here to drink, listen to some awesome tunes, take photos, and just have fun. It is dark in here with low lighting and candles! And as you all know this is my favorite type of setting!
This place is not recommended for the first date or catching up with old friend's. The music is so loud that you will be having to sit as close as possible to hear what everyone is talking about.
