Ricky and Mariia Dolinsky, owners of "Tzarevna" on the Lower East Side, have created a new speakeasy hidden in a back garden space called, Paper Planes. The space, although tucked away, is airy and welcoming. It’s also where refined, balanced craft cocktails are being served.

The craft cocktail bar is a love letter to Ricky’s past as a mixologist. Not constricted by limitations of a single cuisine or people’s expectations, Paper Planes’ menu boasts 15+ original cocktails, made almost exclusively with house-made infusions and mixers, and a list of beloved classics done their way. Food and snacks that pair well with cocktails are also being offered.

Here are some of the house favorites:
