Review: Mr. Crisp in Greenville, South Carolina
Mr. Crisp in Greenville, SC, is a favorite seafood restaurant offering a changing menu with must-try dishes like Fish and Chips, Hush Puppies, and seasonal fresh oysters. The bartender’s unique cocktails are also highly recommended. With a focus on local, sustainable ingredients, it’s a must-visit spot for seafood lovers in the area.
The Bee Sting Cocktail
The Bee Sting cocktail is a variation of the classic Bee’s Knees, adding a spicy twist with fresh jalapeno. Mix gin, lemon juice, and honey syrup with muddled jalapeno, then strain and garnish with sliced jalapenos. The result is a sweet, tangy drink with a kick. Find more old school cocktails on the blog.
