A Muddled Thought

I can’t remember how the rest of the joke goes, but the Blue Owl recently unveiled it’s new Spring Cocktail Menu.

The Blue Owl is known mostly for it’s mellow relaxed vibe, fun atmosphere and it’s fun cocktails.

The bartenders in preparation decided to roll-up their sleeves and come up with some new beverages to help New Yorkers enjoy the warmth of spring, and make the most of the longer nights. For the next several months, in addition to it’s usual happy hour that runs most nights of the week from 5-8pm, Blue Owl will also have be offering extended cocktail specials until 10pm, each Wednesday.
