You don't need to get all Rambo'd  out to do a little hunter-gathering. Herbs and plants growing inside of city limits are wonderfully 
complementary if not essential  to the creation of your favorite cocktail. What

neighborhood yards, alleyways and unruly urban parks. A bit of foresight and some basic common sense are all that’s needed to find fresh ingredients. Sip on these five distinct botanical cocktails in order to hone your instincts.
