The Famous Wrigley Martini - The Windy City Classic
Created by Philip K. Wrigley, the Wrigley Martini was revered for its extra kick by newsmen, ad execs and sports figures in 1950s Chicago. Originally served only at The Wrigley Bar in Chicago’s landmark Wrigley Building, this classic Windy City libation is now available exclusively at Avalon Grille and Descanso Beach Club.
