Behind the Espresso + Prosecco

The duo behind Attaboy, Samuel Ross and Michael McIlroy have recently opened a new spritz and natural wine bar, Good Guys, on the Lower East Side.

Their innovative Espresso + Prosecco cocktail takes the best components of a classic Spritz + Espresso Martini and creates a refreshing blend of citrus, vanilla, and robust espresso notes. Ross and McIlroy drew inspiration from a non-alcoholic drink they developed for their Australian cafe, Hearts, located in Nashville. This version replaces tonic water with a house blend of Amaro resulting in a bubbly spritz that brings the warmth + caffeine of an Espresso Martini.
