We love a vegetal springtime cocktail, and the Three Carrots Tall at Little Fox is exactly what we didn’t know we were looking for. Fruity, fresh and lightly floral, it dances between garden and dessert vibes without tipping too far in either direction. Aquavit brings herbaceousness, and fino sherry adds unexpected complexity. The subtle carrot note keeps things interesting, while a touch of almondy orgeat brings a soft, nutty sweetness reminiscent of carrot cake. The finish has just a whisper of bite, nothing too sharp, and the foamy egg white top arrives with a delicate, almost latte-art-like flourish that makes it as fun to look at as it is to drink.
It’s the first cocktail from bartender Isabella Shumaker to land on the menu, and it’s already carved out a following, especially at brunch. We’re usually committed to sampling widely on a night out, but this one broke the rule, good enough to warrant a rare double order.
