Reconnect with Classmates
While Stern is not able to convene in-person receptions this year, we encourage alumni from the classes of 2019 and 2020 and degree years ending in 0, 1, 5, and 6 to reconnect with friends and classmates from Stern in your own Zoom parties. Set the scene with some celebratory Zoom backgrounds, enjoy a Stern-themed beverage, and cue up one of the customized Spotify playlists below. Need help setting up a Zoom?

Drink Pairings
Adam Teeter (MBA '14), co-founder of VinePair, generously crafted some Stern-themed cocktail recipes for your Reunion-week enjoyment. Cheers!
The Stern Sour
This riff on the classic has a float of "purple" wine on top.
2 oz of your favorite rye or bourbon
1 oz fresh lemon juice
1 oz simple syrup
1/2 oz fruity red wine (I like Malbec for this)
Combine whiskey, lemon juice and simple syrup in a shaker with ice and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is cold. Strain into a rocks glass with one large cube. Then, place a bar spoon or regular spoon over the top of the glass with the back facing up and slowly pour the red wine over the back so that it disperses and floats on the top of the drink. Serve.
The Perfect Manhattan
2 ½ oz rye
.5 oz sweet vermouth
.5 oz dry vermouth
2 dashes angostura
Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass with ice, stir until chilled and then strain into a martini or coupe glass. Garnish with a cocktail cherry.
The Scott Galloway
2 Ounces of Zacapa rum
4 ounces of coke (In summer, substitute w/sparkling water)
Half a lime
Combine rum and coke in a collins glass with ice and squeeze in the juice of half a lime. Add the lime to the glass. Stir and serve.
