Kinsman Rakia 2019 Brandy Alexander Tour: An Old World Alexander at Pastiche & Jet-Setter

Our Brandy Alexander Tour features a little throwback. If you enjoyed the Brandy Alexander at Juniper Tar before the bar’s untimely demise, you’ll want to visit Jet-Setter and sister-bar Pastiche!

Bar owner Benjamin Krick is sharing his recipe from 2017’s Brandy Alexander Tour with bar-goers at his latest bars. He uses Kringle Cream, which adds nutty, buttery flavors of a classic Wisconsin kringle pastry and is made with real Wisconsin cream, 5x distilled Caribbean rum and ONLY natural ingredients.

Head into San Antonio’s Eastside and meet the folks at Pastiche!

If they look familiar, you may be a cocktail aficionado. The bar is the third operated by barman Benjamin Krick, who was responsible for menus at Juniper Tar, along with setting the tone at Jetsetter and now Pastiche.

For those unfamiliar with 1800 century art movements, Pastiche is “an artistic work in a style that imitates that of another work, artist, or period.” The interiors, rehabbed from their 1930s glory, are cozy and charming, and complete with Mucha the cat, an orange tabby that will become your new best friend.

Fans of Dorćol Distilling + Brewing Co. will be glad to know the staff has added a Kinsman cocktail for all to enjoy. Petra, served in a curvaceous Champagne flute, brings together Old World European ingredients like Ratafia Champenois, Italicus, Kinsman and Sparkling rosé in homage to the same art noveau style the bar draws from.

While away an evening at Pastiche with Petra on the patio. You’ll never know what it’ll inspire.
