The Birdie

Celery juice gives Nemacolin’s Birdie cocktail its signature green color.

Chelsea McCune of Nemacolin echoes the green, rolling hills surrounding the Laurel Highlands in her cocktail, Birdie. Crafted like a wine spritzer, this cocktail brings a splendor of herbaceous, fresh, and light flavors, making it perfect for a sweet summer day.
