New for the Saratoga summer at Boca Bistro is the Broadway Bluebird, devised by the restaurant’s manager, Phil Santandrea. It is utterly unlike a traditional Bluebird cocktail, which calls for gin, triple sec and blue curacao, but, Santandrea says, “Breaking tradition is what we pride ourselves on at Boca.”
