Queenies Penicillin Cocktail
By Chilled Magazine
Looking for something to beat the winter blues?
The Penicillin cocktail from Queenie’s Supper Club is the perfect cold-weather cocktail. Wisconsin supper club-style restaurant and cocktail lounge located in Chicago, Queenie’s offers the riff made with the medicinal aspects of ginger, honey and lemon often found in winter-fav Hot Toddy.
Beverage Director Roland Kator says, “While many purists still hold Scotch neat dear to their hearts. Whiskey is a versatile spirit that can take on the ever-changing flavors of the season and has many classic recipes that can be made at home to entice all palates.”
