NANCY’S COCKTAIL PICKS
Photos, pours, and the Miami spots where I found them.
H AVA N A S U N S E T
9 Ft Under
Great drinks, great energy, and the kind of bartender who makes you feel like you picked the right seat at the bar.
Luisa is one of my favorites at 9 Feet Under—and yes, she knows exactly what I’m ordering.
Lychee Martini
Titanic Brewery
Brandon is one of those bartenders who makes sitting at the bar feel like part of the experience.
Friendly, easygoing, and always good for a solid drink, he’s one of my favorite reasons to stop by.
Plutonic Passion
Finka Table & Tap
Marlon is one of those bartenders who adds personality to the whole experience. Warm, welcoming, and great behind the bar, he makes Finka feel even more like the kind of place you want to stay awhile.
El Tikilero
Kaona Room
El Tikilero is bright, tropical, and full of personality. Passion fruit, pineapple juice, fresh lime, and Milagro Tequila come together for a fruity, refreshing drink, finished with a fresh crack of Jamaican pimento that gives it an unexpected aromatic kick.

Some of my favorite Miami bartenders — where to find them and why they’re worth knowing.
Mario
Mario is the kind of bartender who brings personality to the whole experience. Friendly, welcoming, and always good for a great pour, he makes stopping by Twist feel less like just grabbing a drink and more like catching up with someone you’re happy to see.
Juan
Juan brings a warm, easygoing energy to the bar and makes the whole experience feel effortless. Attentive, personable, and always welcoming, he’s the kind of bartender who remembers that great service is about more than just making the drink.
Lucas
Lucas brings the kind of energy that makes a night at Lust even better. Friendly, attentive, and easy to talk to, he knows how to keep the drinks flowing while making the bar feel welcoming and fun.
