Cocktail Oysters, an original New York Oyster Week production, is an opportunity to pair “Cocktail Oysters” with mixology. Increasingly popular are these small or petite oysters that are marketed before they reach 3” in size. Many oyster lovers prefer these smaller oysters as they find them easier to eat. Featured oyster varieties* and cocktail pairings will include:
Montauk Pearls (Montauk, NY)
Beau Soleil (New Brunswick, Canada)
Kusshi (Baynes Sound, BC)
*subject to change / availability / substitution
Cocktail Oysters, The Leadbelly’s featured cocktails and Blue Point Beer will be paired with speciality crafted cocktails by the talented mixologists at The Leadbelly, an Elite Oyster Destination in The OysterHood. Guests are invited to enjoy as many oysters, cocktails or beer as they wish. They are also free to order entrees, cocktails and anything else they like of The Leadbelly’s wonderful menu. Various beers from Blue Point Brewing Company, the official brewer of NY Oyster Week will pair beautifully with the featured oysters as well. This immersive oyster and cocktail experience will afford guests an opportunity to meet and chat with Master Mermmelier Kevin Joseph. He will be exploring the various oysters and pairings with the crowd per their interest. Kevin will also be presenting, Spirited Pearls™ & Accoutrement Premier, with the featured oysters. These trademarks of Kevin’s table side oyster service are not to be missed by anyone seeking to explore and discover new ways to raise the raw bar!
