Cider Lowball Craft Cocktail

November 5, 2024

We believe in taking inspiration from the classics and giving them a refreshing update. Our Bartender’s Special for November is the Cider Lowball, and it does just that.

The Cider Lowball is inspired by the classic whiskey sour. Vanilla, Benedictine and unfiltered apple cider create a nostalgic and familiar flavor that’s both refreshing and surprisingly familiar. The Cider Lowball takes its name from the glassware used. Commonly referred to as a “bucket” or “rocks” glass, this glassware has also been referred to as a “lowball” or “old fashioned” glass.

The Cider Lowball is a perfect fall-inspired cocktail to add into your drink repertoire any time of year.

Water Grill San Diego Shows Next-Gen Hospitality

This week, the San Diego chapter of the California Restaurant Association (CRA) offered restaurant tours and a job fair for 500 hospitality program students from 15 local high schools. Water Grill San Diego welcomed the next generation with open arms, conducting tours of our two downtown restaurants, educating them on what hospitality means to us and serving up some small bites along the way.

Following the tours, the groups gathered at the Rady Shell for lunch and listened to guest speakers, including chefs who grew up in San Diego and attended similar programs.
