If the current pandemic means you can’t make it to Dante in New York — officially recognized last year as “the world’s best bar” — you can now order pre-made drinks from the West Village institution from the comfort of your couch.
Dante just teamed up with F!VE DRINKS CO. for a line of canned drinks, available here nationwide (where allowed) and on liquor store shelves in New York. Among the first releases:
- Summer Spritz: Made with gin, elderflower cordial, cucumber, lemon and grape juice
- Americano 2.0: Amaro, Vermouth, bitters and soda
- Gin + Tonic: Gin, citrus zest and tonic

Surprising for now? No Negroni, even though it’s launching during Negroni Week. (You can still get ’em if you’re a local, however.) But given how quickly the bar has navigated the Covid crisis and even branched out, we’d expect other classic cocktails to follow.
Four-packs of the new cocktails are available now for $13.99.
