I don't know about you, but I'm not always sure which mixed drink goes best with my cupcake.
Three-Martini Playdate moms aren't alone in that struggle. Apparently the proper cupcake-cocktail pairing can elude even the hippest diner. Which is why Pazo has stepped up to the plate.
On Thursdays starting this week, the restaurant will offer cupcakes specially paired with grownup drinks, as The Sun's Sam Sessa reports on the Midnight Sun blog.
The cupcakes are no more kiddie fare than the drinks. One of the more unusual varieties is bacon & Manchego cupcake, made with miticrema nousse. That's paired with a warm apple cider made with Grey Goose La Poire, St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram and Velvet Falernum.
