I recently returned to Trina's Starlite Lounge in Inman Square, and had a much better experience than the first time around - probably due to the fact that I only drank on my second visit. And my drink was good. Trina's offers a slew of "fancy drinks" for $10 each, and while all of them sounded creative and delicious, I was glad I ended up going with the Fallen Angel...twice.
The Fallen Angel is a spicy mango margarita with a BBQ dusted rim. Since it was served with a straw, I didn't enjoy the BBQ spices as much as I should have, but the libation itself was fantastic. Slightly sweet and slightly spicy, this drink had the dangerous combination of being easily drinkable yet probably very strong (the sweet mango flavor masked any taste of booze). Hence why I had two...
Side note: The folks behind Trina's also own Parlor Sports next door, and every Tuesday night the small sports bar has Words with Real Friends. Basically, you can go, drink, enjoy some food specials, and play board games. We went this past Tuesday and it was a lot of fun.

Love Trina's - its been awhile since I have been there, probably time for a return trip!
ReplyDeleteI've only ever been to Trina's for drinks and I've been meaning to go back! Also, that board game night sounds so fun - good to know!
