Her business partner and chef, Brooke Siem, corrects her: "Four drunk girls." Post-brunch.
The Lower East Side's Prohibition Bakery began making its original alcohol-infused cupcakes in 2011, and flavors like Old Fashioned, Sangria, and Pretzels and Beer have been flying off the shelves ever since. Made using a novel technique of inserting liquor post-baking, so the alcohol doesn't burn off, the cupcakes have been a hit with big-league clients like Google and HBO.
And yes, you need to show an I.D. to purchase a cupcake. Virgin flavors are available for the under-21 crowd.
