Remix: The Moscow Mulenew
A fresh take on the classic American cocktail. Moscow’s been defanged by perestroika and capitalism, though; we’ve moved on to new bogeymen. This month's Remix reflects that with not just one new drink, but a pair of them, a drinkable Axis of Evil: the tart and refreshing Baghdad Burro and the kimchi-kicked Pyongyang Pony.

Remix: The Champagne Cocktailnew
Instead of a bitters-soaked sugarcube, Florida's February strawberries add sweetness (and a lovely pale-pink tinge) to the wine. To balance the sugar with pucker, I pair the berries with balsamic vinegar – like many of the best couples, strawberries and balsamic may not seem to have much in common, but they bring out the best in each other.

Limoncello Remixednew
Limoncello is a sweet, fiery Italian lemon liqueur. Our Remixed version takes a few shortcuts and adds a surprise – pompelmo (grapefruit) instead of limon, for a more refreshing, bittersweet liqueur that’s perfect mixed with Campari, chilled, or over ice. Drink in moderation – it’s strong stuff.
