"Escanciar Sidra" translates to "Throwing the Cider," which is evidently something they'll now be doing on the Lower East Side and surprisingly, haven't done before. It's a traditional Spanish way of serving hard cider in which the liquid is poured from four feet above into the glass, creating a mesmerizing stream of booze. They'll be throwing the cider at Macondo, a new eatery serving gourmet Latin street food. Other drink options are equally intriguing (and come without the potential splash zone). "Fruit + Spirit" drinks predominate, like a creamy, frozen, Avocado + Mezcal, and a Carrot + Gin cocktail. There's also a Brazilian Juice Bar with fresh-squeezed extracts. Macondo is named after a fictional village in Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, and if you have to drink alone in this city, there are far worse places than this new spot.
