Hello, New York: Foraged Cocktails at our Remodelista Market Party - Gardenista

Hello, New York: Foraged Cocktails at our Remodelista Market Party - Gardenista
No four words sound lovelier together. Possibly we glossed over a few details—like the fact that Marie would have to mix 500 of them—but as you can see from the photographic evidence, she rose beautifully to the occasion.

The rims were sugared by wiping lemon around the glass and then dipping in spiced sugar.
Our 50 vendors arrived early to display their wares including hand printed linens jewelry ceramics one of a kind quilted textiles cotton ribbon imported from Italy and...
...woven leather sandals from Mumbai which proved so irresistible that at least one Brooklyn blogger was overheard asking if she could have a free pair to review
Our cocktail table was ready to rumble, loaded with pitchers of Triple Juniper and Sumac Sour cocktails.

Spicebush-sugar rims for the Sumac Sour.
A pitcher of Sumac Sour being chilled—each pitcher served 10 cocktails. Marie’s cookbook, 66 Square Feet: A Delicious Life is $20.65 at Amazon.
A coupe of Sumac Sour, a rye-based cocktail made with NY Distilling Co.’s Mister Katz’s Rye, Atsby’s Amberthorn Vermouth, Sumac-ade (see Triple Juniper recipe for how to make at home), Hollis Hills 2016 Maple Syrup, and Cecil and Merle’s Apricot Bitters.
For the wild-inspired cocktail ingredients Marie made 12 liters of sumac-ade, using 2 pounds of New Jersey staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina) foraged in New Jersey by Tama Matsuoka Wong (author of Foraged Flavor).
If you would like to learn more about the wild flavors that grow under your nose, you can join Marie on one of her wild foods walks in New York City.
Friday night cocktail party + shopping (that’s another word we like).
Team Remodelista hard at work.
Never were we happier to sell out.
