Knicks fans can now grab a "Lin and Tonic" or a "Lintini" to wash down their "Lin Burgers."
LINSANITY!
Jeremy Lin is an NBA phenomenon and a sports sensation. We've got it covered from every angle.Drink and food concoctions are popping up all over town in honor of the Knicks' newest hero, Jeremy Lin, as his star power continues to climb.
The Lintini is now the house special at Arctica on Third Avenue, where bartender Krista Triviso whips them up for a crowd-pleasing $7.
"This drink kicks *ss, just like Jeremy Lin!" declared Melanie Bernstein, 25, of Chelsea.
"Visually, it's gorgeous. It's strong, too," said Triviso, 23.
There are various recipes for the Lin and Tonic.
Arctica is using top-shelf Bombay Sapphire gin, blue Curacao, tonic, a slice of orange and an olive. Arctica is also serving up the Lintini.
Lugo Caffe near Madison Square Garden makes its Lin and Tonic with a brown olive to symbolize a basketball.
The popular Shake Shack is getting in on the action with the Jeremy Lin-Mint, a chocolate mint cookie milkshake.
Over at the Blarney Rock Pub on West 33rd Street, the cooks are serving up a Lin Burger.
"It's $9.95 and comes with bacon, cheese and barbecue sauce," said manager Michael Higgins.
"I'd say we've seen a seven to 10 percent bump in business during Knicks games recently, which has been really nice."
The Village Pourhouse at Third Avenue and East 11th Street is offering up two-for-one "LINtoxicated Bombs" -- shots of the Japanese drink Shochu dropped into Chinese Tsingtao beer -- for $10.
