Wintry temps call for warming temptations in a comfy bar. After all, nothing takes the edge off bone-chilling winds like a soothing concoction from a mixologist with serious chops. And the wonders of the craft cocktail movement mean you can sip a potent, warming beverage that doesn’t require an iron will and a steel gut. Imagine: You escape the frosty evening and gain sanctuary in a warm, welcoming lounge, and explore the complex tapestry of flavors in a hand-crafted cocktail. If that sounds inviting, here are a few names to remember.

• The Fireside Chat: This cozy sweater in a glass combines bourbon, averna, ancho reyes, bitters and cinnamon syrup.

• The Upper Manhattan: Butter-washed rye, chinato vermouth, maple syrup and black walnut bitters. Yes, you read that correctly. Butter-washed rye.

• The Nuevo Old Fashioned: A fiery update on the beloved classic with añejo mezcal, meletti amaro, ancho reyes and West India orange bitters.

• The Holiday Nog: This thermal blend of bourbon, bourbon creme, egg white, condensed milk, cinnamon and nutmeg offers just the right pairing of naughty and nice.

So if you’re warming to the idea of a craft cocktail to thwart Old Man Winter, slip into Truluck’s for all of the signature libations above and many more. All of which are half price during cocktail hour, seven days a week. Come raise a toast to feeling toasty.
