Swim Club: Bramble

Ingredients: Gin, house-made cranberry mulled wine syrup, lemon, pebble ice. $10

Bundle up against the early fall chill and take a high dive into this rich, spiced cocktail that you can cuddle up with all evening. Swim Club Wet Bar, Fairhaven’s south-of-France-themed lounge, offers a year-round beverage whose flavor and name will have you ready for autumn. The Bramble is as gorgeous as it is tasty. It’s full-bodied and flavorful, but the ice and lemon add a lightness that guarantees you’ll finish it feeling refreshed. Strong cinnamon, sugar, and clove notes come through from their house-made syrup, which is the best way to welcome fall.

Use the outdoor seating on a sunny September day, or cozy up on their rose-colored booths. It’s classy and comfortable all in one: Perfect for taking yourself or friends out on the town. Swim Club is also eco-friendly, serving metal straws in every drink. Swim on over this September—you won’t want to leave.
