Sanctuary T New York
Creative tea-based cocktails
If you're looking for a typical beer or tequila soda, Sanctuary T in NYC is not the place for you. However, if you are looking for lovingly crafted unique cocktails, most of which involve tea, you'll be in heaven.
Located in SoHo, Sanctuary T offers a wide variety of teas, as well as delicious food and drink. One of the many unique features of the restaurant is their tea infused liquors and syrups. From Earl Grey-infused gin to rooibos and chai infused bourbon, these drinks are designed to give you your classic booze kick with the relaxing tea finish. Stop in sometime during happy hour at the bar from 5-7 daily and enjoy a nice Earl of Soho or a Green T Margarita, an elevated spin on a classic.
The best part about this craft bar is that it never feels like you're lost in a crowd. The bartenders and servers always make you feel seen and at home, regardless of how busy they may be. If you're looking for a nice escape from the hubbub of the city while enjoying a drink that in itself is an art form, Sanctuary T is the place to go!
