Striver’s Hill Cocktail
By Kate Chunn, Beverage Director, Reverence
In partnership with Ocean Hill Apple Brandy
Founder Joseph Sadden had a vision to create a local distillery during his graduate studies at NYU SPS. Soon after commencement, his vision came to life when he launched Sadden Brothers & Co. Distilling Corp., a federally licensed DSP. The Nano Distillery is located in East New York Brooklyn and is focused on making boutique brandies. The first product to launch was Ocean Hill Apple Brandy in May of 2019. They immediately sold out and the brand relaunched with its second iteration in August 2019.
Ocean Hill gained substantial steam in the Fall 2019 winning people’s choice at the Cocktail Classic. Served in all 5 Boroughs, Ocean Hill is quickly growing to be a new classic. Sadden attributes his success to, “staying focused and determined” and said “when you face adversity, pivot and adapt.” The brand is a passion project that NYU SPS helped become a reality. He believes life-long learning is crucial and attends trade shows and stays involved with industry groups, like the New York Distillers Guild.

Tangerine Dream Cake
By Pastry Chef Caroline Schiff, Gage & Tollner
Widely known under the moniker @pastryschiff, Caroline is a celebrated baking guru and culinary consultant based in Brooklyn, and currently the Pastry Chef of historic oyster and chop house Gage & Tollner. A native New Yorker and tried and true Brooklynite, Caroline got her start in the restaurant industry a decade ago cooking at The Good Fork in Red Hook, and worked her way up through a number of acclaimed restaurants and bakeries including Mas (la Grillade), Maysville NYC, Kenton’s NOLA, and Greene Grape Provisions before coming full circle to work with Good Fork owners Sohui and Ben once again at Gage & Tollner. Caroline’s signature gravity-defying hairdo is outsized only by her enormous heart; in her spare time you can find her supporting charitable causes like the amazing Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen, or running a marathon. Casual.
At the start of the pandemic, a very kind neighbor of Caroline’s ordered a case of tangerines and generously shared some with her, as it was too much for her family alone. Caroline used the beautiful produce to create this Tangerine Dream Cake, which she then shared back with her neighbors. This kind of (socially-distant) exchange during such a devastating crisis gave Caroline so much hope, showcasing the beauty in caring for our own community with ingredients, food and sharing. This upside-down cake is extremely versatile, and the caramel will work with most fruits, making for an ideal snacking cake while quarantined (and beyond!). It’s not too sweet so it could be your breakfast with coffee, a sweet lunch or brunch treat… really an anytime/all the time kind of cake! Ingredients in bold have swaps and substitutions listed at the end of the recipe. Take care, and happy baking!
