Caña Rum Bar Indian Summer Menu

Caña changed up its menu format this summer; I like to think that it speaks to the clientele's growing sophistication, and that Caña no longer has to divvy up its menu into (more or less) approachable to advanced. Instead, the bar is eschewing its weaponry theme to present three mini-menus of sorts. One is focused on "garden-fresh" cocktails, popularized by LA bars such as The Hungry Cat and Copa d'Oro, and modernized by places like Rivera and The Library Bar at the Roosevelt Hotel. Next is an entire section devoted to beer cocktails. Finally, some favorites from Caña's deep cocktail catalog. For more information, visit 213nightlife.com
