It's no surprise that the effortlessly cool NYC supper club, The Darby, would throw down some serious summer drinks for the summer. The Darby's Glamour Girl has the fixings of a straight-up cocktail — Grey Goose, anyone? — with a summer twist: watermelon ice cubes. The fruit adds an unexpected crispness to an already refreshing drink.
