Cocktails for Brains, Heart, Home and
Courage from the Oak Room at the
Plaza Hotel. |

Today is the 70th Anniversary of the release of MGM’s classic film, “The Wizard of Oz.” Rent it today or this weekend and invite friends to join you for a trip down the Yellow Brick Road.
The Oak Room at New York City’s Plaza Hotel has created a drink special: shots inspired by the desires of the four lead characters in the movie. Head bartender Orlando Rivera has crafted this delightfully whimsical and potent collection:
- Brains, a.k.a. the Mind Eraser, a shot of equal parts of vodka, Kahlua and tonic water
- Heart, a watermelon and yuzu martini shot
- Courage, a courageously spicy jalapeño-infused tequila shot
- Home, comfort food in a cocktail, a peanut butter and jelly shot made of vodka, Chambord and Amaretto
