6. Rosina
Cocktail bar Rosina opened at the Palazzo Las Vegas in December. The new venue offers guests an opulent atmosphere with shades of black, gold, pearl, and burgundy, presented in decor and furniture such as crystal chandeliers, high-top tables, U-shaped banquettes, and an 1,100-square-foot bar that resembles a jewelry box. The bar’s signature feature is a “Champagne Call Button,” a button on a mirrored column next to their table that guests push when they would like a refill. The venue seats 65 guests and is available for private events.

Zuma Las Vegas at the Cosmopolitan launched its “Zuma Zacapa Live Solera” station in September, replicating Zacapa rum’s “Sistema Solera” slow-aging process in American Oak barrels. The Las Vegas restaurant joins nine other Zuma locations worldwide that feature the cocktail theater installation, which delivers a bespoke cocktail at each location that’s designed for local tastes. The Vegas iteration features a bubble gum-inspired flavor derived from a combination of Zacapa’s 23-year-old rum, bourbon, bitters, and dry and sweet vermouth.
