Blacking out is so high school. But still, it happens.
When it does, you must piece together your evening using a trail of text messages and stains.
Violet Hour cocktails are unforgettable. We asked mixologist/magician Toby Maloney to scheme up a DailyCandy summer drink — one you can make at home, preferably without potions or eyedroppers. The resulting cool, fruity cocktail? The 41 Jane Doe.
