DENIAL

Courtesy Zuma Restaurant

Have you concocted an elaborate fantasy that you're not actually in America right now, but rather, lounging on a private island? Transport yourself with this high-brow tropical cocktail from Zuma restaurant called the Himari Smash. It's easy: Muddle 6 mint leaves in a mixing tin. Add equal parts tequila, bitters, passion fruit purée and grapefruit juice, then shake vigorously. Strain the cocktail into a tall glass with crushed ice. Garnish with an orange wheel and mint sprig for extra fancy.

Free yourself of the notion that Bloody Mary's are just for brunch and whip up this spicy Bloody with shrimp and bacon. Get the recipe here.
