At Cure, mixologists Neal Bodenheimer, Kirk Estopinal and Matthew Kohnke explore pre-Prohibition recipes; at their latest venture in Hotel Modern, they go back further in time. The cornerstone of the bar program here is the cobbler, a popular libation from the "pre-cocktail" era (around the 1830s) consisting of fortified wine (such as sherry, vermouth or port), sugar and citrus pieces shaken briskly with ice. While the cocktail highlights new ingredients and the "ice fetish" associated with the era, Bellocq's cobblers are modern interpretations.
