Alcove, located in Hillhurst Ave, Los Angeles, has such a lovely, garden patio with many locals enjoying the sunshine with their cocktails.
In Gun Kiss, I wrote a scene that takes place at this popular place. So, I thought it’ll be nice to give you a taste of the place that goes beyond the pages of the book. So, I contacted the management and asked them if they’d be kind to contribute a recipe for one of their drinks.
Here’s a cocktail recipe, courtesy of Alcove, for one of their most popular cocktails. The cocktail Tigermom Gimlet is named after the bar manager, Cari Hah.
