Michigan Red Berry Refresher
Ok! Webers, the Habitat Ultralounge. The name just oozes swank. *on a completely unrelated note, it's St. Patricks Day and there are throngs of incredibly irritating drunk people on the loose. just had to share, back to the review!* All of my Habitat Ultralounge experiences have been pretty good. This was a Tuesday night, and during the week they have "Live dancing entertainment with the areas best bands". Oh boy! It lived up to my expectations, without a doubt. There was a two-piece ensemble performing.
Man - A Sting/Malcolm McDowell hybrid with a saxaphone, a keyboard, and a microphone. Early 50s, probably.
Woman - Looked a little like Cheryl Tiegs, but not really. Long, blonde hair with highlights for that sunkissed look, middle part. Wearing a red, micro-mini, lycra dress with one long sleeve. See photo for reference. She didn't play any instruments, but she sang like an angel.
They played a wide variety of sweet jams including Green Light by John Legend. I can honestly say it was a truly unique interpretation. Ok, alright. Enough about the awesome Ultralounge.
Red Berry Ciroc (Ultra Premium Vodka), Dekuyper Cherry liqueur, and lemonade. Served over ice with 2 straws and a maraschino cherry, stemmed. To be fair, I had a pretty gross anchovie stuffed olive (do yourself a favor and just get the blue cheese olives instead, seriously) right before I ordered this. It was super easy to drink and didn't taste like booze at all. I don't have anything bad to say about it, really. It could have been the atmosphere or it could have been the Ultra Premium vodka I was enjoying.
"I own twenty cuckaroos." "Twenty-one sir." "I own twenty one cuckaroos."
So yeah. The "areas best bands" are awesome and this foofy little cocktail was delightful. I only rate it mediocre because it tasted like a million other things I've already tried.
