Located in the somewhat unknown Fort Point neighborhood of Boston’s waterfront, Drink is well worth the trek, but don’t come with a cocktail in mind. Instead, the bartenders will ask what alcohol, flavor, or even ingredient that you’re in the mood for. Whether you’re craving black rum, something spicy, or a cherry, the crafty mixologists shake up a surprise and then explain the concoction as they serve it. The expertise doesn’t come for free—expect to pay about $12 a drink. Bring a group of friends whose germs you don’t mind sharing in order to sample the work of Drink’s master bartenders. And given that this is a Barbara Lynch establishment, pool your extra change to order a couple of the bar’s canapés, such as the steak tartare ($15) or the french fries with malt vinegar aioli ($7). Try to avoid the after-work crowd on weeknights, and arrive early on weekends to get a seat.

348 Congress St., Boston. South Station (Red)
