Minetta Tavern – Friday Dinner Series

January 31, 2014 by TheBetterHalf 8 Comments

Minetta Tavern in New York City is a great spot to have a celebratory dinner, sit for a drink at the bar, or grab one of the best burgers in the city.

Another Friday, another look at one of our favorite restaurants in New York. Minetta Tavern is located in Greenwich Village, a few blocks south of Washington Square. The restaurant dates back to the 1930s but it recently underwent a facelift when it was taken over by restauranteur Keith McNally. It maintains a good deal of old school charm – dim lighting, red leather booths, and a classic cocktail bar – and has a menu full of updated takes on traditional dishes. Minetta Tavern is perhaps most famous for their signature burger (and for good reason), but there’s plenty more to this restaurant….

Pineapple Mint Tequila Mojito

This Pineapple Mint Tequila Mojito is a refreshing and delicious cocktail that will be the hit of any party! The tart lime tastes amazing with the sweet pineapple!

It’s finally Friday! I don’t know about you, but I could use a cocktail (or two)! This refreshing pineapple mint tequila mojito will do the trick! This cocktail is delicious. The light sweetness from the mint simple syrup and the fresh pineapple complements the tequila and lime perfectly. Top it off with club soda for some bubbly action and you have a perfect cocktail! The original recipe calls for rum, but TheBetterHalf and I prefer tequila mojito. I think this would also be great with vodka. I decided to put a sugared lime rim on our cocktails because it looks so pretty – and because I am a fan of sugar if you couldn’t tell. It is so easy, just zest one or two of your limes and mix it with some sugar. Cheers! Hope you all have a great weekend. …
