Inspired by Japanese restaurant Nami Nori’s view of McCarren Park in Brooklyn, cocktail consultant Molly McClintock pulled together the refreshing elements of brunchy cocktails like the Aperol Spritz, Salty Dog, and Spumoni. The result is this floral, bittersweet spritz recipe with a touch of savory notes courtesy of sesame oil.
