Marian song — much by female composers — played by a vocal/instrumental ensemble that likes to improvise and ornament.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: In person, I’m not gonna even tell you what El Mil Sabores puts on their Torta Loca sandwich. You have to see it for yourself. Streaming at home, have a Mary Pickford: pour 1-1/2 oz. each of white Rum and pineapple juice, 1/4 oz. Grenadine, and 1 tsp. Maraschino liqueur into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake. Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe. Garnish with a cocktail cherry.
