The Bite:
imageDying for a damned-good drink? Reap(er) major booze benefits at GustOrganics, a nature-y, modern resto that just added a USDA-certified organic bar. Spirits like Square One Vodka, Juniper Green Organic Gin, 4 Copas Tequila, and Highland Harvest Organic Scotch Whiskey are mixed with fresh-squeezed cranberry, pineapple, and pomegranate juices for a bit o' buzz sans artificial flavors and pesticides (GO even purifies the ice). Try the Fresquitos, blended with agave, vodka, mangos, and OJ, or the cucumber-and-mint Pepino. Then chow Doña Maria Cheese (baked mozz served with wheat crostini) before you die of hunger.
Wanna Try: 
GustOrganics, 519 Ave. of the Americas. Map It (212-242-5800). Doña Maria Cheese, $6.

Cocktail Fact

The U.S. Marine Corps' first recruiting station was in a bar.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 NY Biters drink only organic beverages for one week, we'll keep 32 cocktail shakers full of pesticides from pouring into the environment.
