Lil Snick­ers, a cock­tail that reminds us to never take our­selves too seri­ously, fea­tures a locally sourced Snick­ers Mini gar­nish that’s for­aged from the Rite Aid across the street from the bar at Wet City. Some peo­ple, when read­ing a cock­tail menu, might feel that ingre­di­ents like Car­damaro or Capaletti Apertivo might be a tad pre­ten­tious. How­ever, throw a Snick­ers Mini into the mix and whammo you have one hell of an approach­able and humor­ous drink for the masses.  And that’s why Lil Snick­ers has been one of Wet City’s longest run­ning cock­tails. That and it’s a damn good drink. Photo above by Nom­tas­tic Foods.
