This Cinco de Mayo, Upper West Side favorite Infamous Bistro will be serving their Infamous Palomas for $8 all day! Beverage consultant Milos Zica of Employees Only has put a special spin on his Cinco de Mayo Paloma. The spicy, smoky version of a classic cocktail uses mezcal rather than tequila, with fresh grapefruit juice, a chili-salt rim, and grapefruit garnish. It’s the perfect thing to enjoy on their chic outdoor patio this weekend. 1012 Amsterdam Avenue.
