After-Work / Cocktail Alternatives
After-Work Cannabis & Cocktail Alternatives
Manhattan's after-work economy has been quietly reshaping since the pandemic. Younger adults drink less; THC seltzers show up on bar menus in Midtown; non-alcoholic cocktail programs have matured from novelty to serious craft.
