Every summer, those of us with a sweet tooth put away our typical glass of wine or cocktail and instead, opt for a chill, fruity glass of sangria – or, we make our own pitchers at our RESA apartments with our traditional touches.
Throughout Washington, D.C. you can get red and white sangria – and even fun and outlandish varieties – at restaurants and bars that are just a quick Uber ride from your RESA apartment. Here’s where to find them.
Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar, located at 801 9th St NW Suite A, Washington, D.C. which is worth every minute of its 10 minute drive from your RESA apartment, offers Cuban cuisine and a vast rum bar accented by Caribbean decor and late-night salsa dancing.
Cuba Libre’s mission is to provide an escape to Havana through exciting food, beverage and entertainment experiences that celebrate the Cuban people and culture. Two-time James Beard award-winner and Founding Chef Guillermo Pernot’s menus feature tantalizing tastes that reflect Cuba’s culinary traditions, as well as the emerging modern cuisine that he is experiencing during his continuing travels to Cuba.
Joselito Casa de Comidas, located at 660 Pennsylvania Ave. SE, Washington, D.C. which is a 13 minute journey from home, is known for its tapas, mains and family-style Spanish dishes served in cozy bistro decorated with old family photos.
Joselito is an homage to the owner’s late father, Jose Candon Perez, who together with his wife, showed their son that some of the best memories of life are created with family and friends over long, leisurely meals.
