Pursuitist - 5-Star Luxury

Inspired by the French-American actress who founded a boisterous cabaret on the site of the Pennsylvanian boutique hotel River House at Odette’s, the nouveau property created a trio of original Bastille Day cocktails using France’s St-Germain elderflower liqueur. All three libations were designed to be both sophisticated yet easy to make and sip all summer long, thanks to complimentary citrus, herbal, and floral notes.
