Denver | Sip on Some Botanical Bliss !!🌿🍸
I recently visited The Broken Cage, a cocktail bar north of Denver’s train station, after seeing it recommended by a food blogger on Instagram. Since I was downtown, I decided to check it out! 🏙️✨ 📍 The Broken Cage Drink Rating: 5/5 🌟 Price Range: $10-20 (with happy hour deals!) 💸 Cocktail Preferences: Citrusy, refreshing, fruity 🍊🍍 Drink Variety: 5/5 – They offer creative non-alcoholic options and clever twists on classics! 🍹 Ambiance: 4/5 – I expected a jungle-like vibe, but plants were only in certain corners. Still cozy! 🪴 Service: 3/5 – The server was neither rude nor warm; just okay for this price point. 😐 Drinks We Tried: 1️⃣ Matcha Picchu (Green) 🍵 Absolutely incredible! This drink blends matcha and pisco (Peru’s national spirit) seamlessly – a genius fusion of Asian and Latin American flavors! The bitterness of the matcha is perfectly balanced with sweetness, reminiscent of a matcha-infused whiskey sour. A must-try! 🌏✨ 2️⃣ Boba Fett (Orange) 🧡 Features bursting lychee boba pearls! Sweet, fruity, and citrusy without being overwhelming. The only downside: no straw, so the boba sinks to the bottom. Still, a lychee lover’s dream! 🌸🍬 3️⃣ Black Smoke 🖤💨 Served in a lantern – when opened, smoke billows out! Visually stunning, but the smoky, peaty flavor might not be for everyone. The purple hue and witchy vibe are fun, but the taste is a 3.5/5. Perfect for Instagram though! 📸🎭 Overall, The Broken Cage impressed me with its creativity and quality. Happy hour is great for trying multiple drinks (though Matcha Picchu and Boba Fett aren’t included). At $15 per cocktail, the value is solid! 💯❤️ If you love botanical, innovative drinks, this place is for you! 🌿🥂 #USA #Denver#TheBrokenCage #CocktailBar #DenverNightlife #MatchaCocktail #LycheeBoba #SmokyDrinks
