One of my favorite restaurants here in Atlanta is a little place tucked inside the popular Krog Street Market in Atlanta’s Old Fourth Ward — the Ticonderoga Club. Founded by Regan Smith and Greg Best, Greg single-handedly launched Atlanta’s cocktail renaissance in 2014 running the bar at Holeman & Finch. This take on the julep is their namesake drink and features pineapple syrup, sherry, and aged rum. Try it – I promise you will love it.
