There’s nothing quite like a rosé-filled summer night in New York City. Summer Fridays can’t come soon enough, and we know the importance of cooling off with with a chilled bottle of sauvignon blanc or the hottest tequila-based cocktail. That’s why, starting today, we’re expanding Postmates DRINKS to Manhattan and Brooklyn! New Yorkers can now enjoy a wide range of wine and spirits, sourced from local wine and liquor stores.
So whether you’re grinding away the office, chilling on your friend’s rooftop, or hanging with friends in Washington Square Park, don’t forget to visit the Postmates DRINKS tab, and order a bottle of your favorite wine or liquor.
And, because we love keeping it local, here is a breakdown of how you can use DRINKS in NY, including the best spots to Postmate your next drink!
DRINKS: The New Yorker’s Guide
This summer, why not make any hour… happy hour? Here are some of the best spots in NY to postmate your next bottle of wine or alcohol from.
Rosé on The High Line
Sure, the High Line may seem like a tourist trap for those that actually live in New York — but should you be able to sneak out of work before the sun sets, there aren’t many better places to take in a sunset with a bottle of rosé. Search the “Rosé” category in DRINKS, and share a bottle with a friend.
Prosecco at Washington Square Park
If you’re looking for some quality people watching while you sip your next glass of Prosecco, Washington Square Park is the place to be. Snag a seat on the steps or a park bench and search the “Sparkling” category for a bottle of sparkling wine. If you’re looking to keep the bubbles of champagne but ready to branch out, keep an eye out for Brut-level sparklers like Cava.
White Wine at Brooklyn Bridge Park
The iconic Brooklyn Bridge somehow looks even more spectacular in the summer. Grab a blanket, take in the views… and postmate a bottle of classic white wine to kick things up a notch. If you’re looking for a light, crisp white wine this summer, search the “White Wine” category and try a Pinot Gris.
Cocktails on any NY Rooftop…
The second summer arrives in NYC, it’s no secret that rooftops are the place to be. Should you find yourself on one of these coveted rooftops overlooking Manhattan, be sure to postmate your next bottle of Tequila, Vodka, Gin or Rum to make the ultimate last minute cocktail. For Tequila-based cocktails, we recommend starting simple with the tried and true Paloma:
Paloma Recipe
1 grapefruit wedge
¼ cup fresh grapefruit juice
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon sugar
