If you follow the blog, you’ll know I’ve been pumpkin-obsessed lately (being that it’s chilly & fall), and went on a tour de latte in Hoboken not too long ago.
Well, the Clinton Social has one-upped the coffee shops of Hoboken with their new concoction: The Pumpkin Spice Martini!
This is an absolutely fun, festive, and delicious drink. While it’s a little “heavy” as far as texture (due to the vanilla and butterscotch situation) it is absolutely perfect for a Thursday night at the Clinton Social…when martinis are 1/2 off, and also, because it’s fall!
The Clinton Social’s Pumpkin Spice Martini
This little number is a mix of pumpkin spice liquor, Stoli vanilla, and Godiva Butterscotch. MMM. Ask Max, the bartender, to make it. He did a phenomenal job.
If that’s not enough to get you in a festive spirit, I don’t know what is. However, if you’re opting for another flavorful and delicious drink situation, I highly suggest the “T” drink menu. I ordered a Twisted Old Fashioned (in a MASON JAR).
Clinton Social’s Twisted Old Fashioned
Did I mention it’s in a mason jar? Love. This is a mix of muddled orange and cherry, jeremiah weed, lemonade, and club soda. So delicious. There are also a bunch of other drinks that come in mason jars. Try the John Daly – it’s yummy as well.
We also ordered the Filet Mignon sliders and Stacked Eggplant. Both hit the spot (especially the sliders). The eggplant is like “eggplant parm,” but I’d probably wait for Grimaldi’s if you’re looking for legit Italian appetizers. However, if you want to see more Clinton Social apps and cocktails that I’ve tried, check out a post about some other girly drinks and ‘tizers from my archives here.
Have you been to the Clinton Social? What’s your fave drink or dish? Don’t forget, Thursdays there are 1/2 price martinis all night! Make sure to try the pumpkin martini! Tell them HG sent you.
