Innovative Cocktails at The Langham Boston’s BOND Bar

Sweet yet bold, the bartenders at BOND in The Langham, Boston describe one of their newest cocktails as the perfect balance of flavors. Named for veteran BOND bartender Eddie McGuire’s dog Molly, the Molly McGuire blends Ron Zacapa rum with ginger-honey syrup and fresh lemon, finished with a honey stick garnish. The drink highlights BOND’s approach to craft cocktails: refined, flavorful, and designed to complement the hotel’s elegant setting.

Eddie McGuire has been behind the bar for more than three decades, serving guests since the property operated as Le Méridien and the bar was known as Julien. His long tenure and deep knowledge of classic and contemporary cocktails have helped shape BOND’s seasonal cocktail menu. Several signature creations from McGuire and the BOND mixology team showcase inventive infusions, thoughtful use of liqueurs, and fresh ingredients.
