The Most Popular Cocktails of January

This month, our most popular cocktails were layered. You gravitated toward unexpected pairings (like elderflower liqueur and Chicago’s infamous dare shot), subrecipes that are worth the extra effort  (like habanero shrub) and a multi-step milk punch. Perhaps it’s the new year energy that we’re channeling into cocktail projects or a backlash to the glut of December Martinis and eggnogs? Whatever the reason, kudos for trying something new this month. Here are the recipes you loved most in January.
