At Towne Stove and Spirits, bar manager Sarah Baker is offering an homage to her mentor Brenda Mary. Dubbed Brenda's Spice and Sass, the drink is $13 and available all week. It's made with 1.5 ounces tequila, 1 ounce raspberry purée, 1 ounce lime, .5 ounce agave, .5 ounce triple sec, and 4 dashes of Tabasco, served up with a half sugar, half salt rim.

"When I first met my mentor Brenda Mary at Vox," said Baker, "I was so intimidated I could barely speak to her. She was the head bartender, had a huge following, rang more than any other staff member, and, not to mention, was drop-dead gorgeous. Over time I got to know her better and learned what a genuinely good person she was and always tried to emulate her ideals: work as hard as you can, be nice to everyone no matter what, and, most importantly, have fun! The drink is sweet and looks amazing, but packs a big punch and lots of heat!"
