For football season, we had a bartender from each NFL team's hometown provide the perfect cocktail to represent their team.

“The perennial losing ways of the New York Jets have inspired me to create a cocktail around the last time they were actually winners,” says bartender Cody Goldstein of Mathews in Jersey City, N.J. “The Broadway Joe era was both flamboyant and fabulous. I combined joe (coffee) flavors with herbaceous mint and alpine herbs to wake the team up along with coconut cream rum because they are always on vacation come playoff time.”

  • 2 ounces coffee-infused Espolón blanco tequila*

  • 1/4 ounce vanilla simple syrup**

  • Garnish: Edible green glitter
