Llama Inn’s Some Like It Hot
Recent Williamsburg hotspot Llama Inn introduces an even newer weekend brunch menu of Peruvian classics from former Eleven Madison Park sous-chef Erik Ramirez with a youthful twist. To round out the offerings of crispy pork shoulder sandwiches and fried rice-filled omelettes, this cocktail by Lynnette Marrero and Jessica Gonzalez adds some warm spice to the Irish coffee concept.

  • 2 oz. Hot water
