The Edison is a bar located in the basement of the Higgins Building which was at one time LA’s very first power plant. This bar keeps that vision alive as a sort of steam punk homage to those bygone days.

This drink obviously takes its inspiration from the New York sour adding in a little vanilla for complexity and orange juice for depth. And of course a medium bodied fruity wine to play off the flavors.
