If your tolerance for gin rises with the mercury, it's time to check out the new cocktail list at Ombi, where owner-bartender Terrell Raley and Ed Kolb have dreamed up a new list that is one part "Favorite Sons" and one part "House Blends."

The former is a roster of updated classics, while the latter is a repertoire of Raley and Kolb originals, such as the Garofano (Bombay sapphire, clove, lavender, lemon, Italian vermouth and blood orange bitters); the Jasper (Jack Daniel's, ginger, blueberry, bitters and club soda); and the Menta Levanta (Patrón silver, French vermouth, mint, rose, strawberry and lime juice).

I had the Sageberry Cocktail the other night because I love anything with prosecco. And my husband had the Prairie Mojito which is like strawberry rhubarb pie in an alcoholic beverage. The drinks are $9 a piece.

I want to go order a Black Lemon Old Fashioned, or a Jasper. Funny that those appeal to me, they sound similar. The Boy & I went a month or so ago, and I'm ready to go back!
