The Pebble Beach, one of the new cocktails on the menu at H Street Country Club.

It’s only natural to want to top off a grueling afternoon or evening of sporting competition – in this case, mini-golf – with a couple of cold ones. Luckily for cocktail fans, at H Street Country Club, that post-game refreshment isn’t limited to a selection of beers shoved in a cooler on the back of the golf cart. Thanks to the bar’s newly expanded drinks menu, and the magic touch of mixologist turned consultant Gina Chersevani, revelers and competitors alike can sip on a Pebble Beach, a Mr. Hendrick’s and a few other hand-crafted cocktails that include fresh and unique ingredients.

It was no big leap for the H St. NE bar to beef up the cocktail list, according to co-owner Ricardo Vegara. The watering hole already made a splash on the D.C. drink dossier with its margaritas, which won Best Flavors and Best Frozen in this year’s On Tap magazine competition, and wanted to build on that by adding more signature cocktails, Vergara said during a recent tasting of the new menu. HSCC has wanted to work with Chersevani for awhile, and things finally came together, according to Vergara’s partner, Blair Zervos. Formerly of Eat Bar and currently the bar manager at PS7’s, Chersevani’s stock has been on the rise since last year when she was named one of The Beverage Journal’s Top 10 Mixologists to Watch.
