On a summer day, few things are more refreshing than throwing some peanuts in a glass of Coke. (No, really, this is a thing.) Raleigh’s Foundation, on Fayetteville Street, offers its own boozy twist on that with the Captain Howard’s, a cocktail with bourbon, cola syrup, lime, and a handful of peanuts, all served in a Collins glass. It’s not always on the menu, but order it anyway and tip your bartenders extra, because damn is it delicious. A perfect, uniquely Southern drink at one of Raleigh’s best cocktail bars.
