Friday’s Featured Cocktail: Navy Beach’s Captain Jack

“The best sunset on Long Island.”  Inevitably, if you hear these words spoken, the topic is Navy Beach, a spectacular restaurant-beach-playground on Fort Pond Bay in Montauk.

Of course nothing is better than enjoying a sunset with your toes in the sand & a cocktail in hand.

Fortunately, Navy Beach serves up a delicious assortment of bespoke cocktails.  Our favorite, and new for 2012, is the Captain Jack, and it is today’s Friday’s Featured Cocktail.

What you need:

  • 1.5 ounces of rye
  • 0.5 ounces of St. Germain
  • 0.5 ounces of lime juice
  • Ginger beer

How you make it:

Combine the rye, St. Germain and lime juice.  Shake.  Pour the mix into a Tom Collins glass filled with ice.  Top with the Ginger beer and garnish with a slice of orange.

If you visit the Hamptons this summer, be sure to spend a memorable evening at Navy Beach.  Don’t forget to make reservations.  As you can imagine, Navy Beach is a popular place!
