Ah, it’s a new year and the chill of winter is settling in here in the desert. When the evenings are cold enough to see your breath, a sweater just doesn’t always cut it.
This is where a warm cocktail comes in clutch and The Parish at 6453 N Oracle Rd. has a couple of concoctions to sip on this winter.
Heads up: These cocktails are only around for a limited time so pay a visit to the north side restaurant soon. They’ll be dropping their new/spring menu on St. Patrick’s Day in March.
Mama Venonah’s Remedy
House-infused brown butter bourbon, local honey-infused syrup, lemon, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg

Chocolate Love
House-infused vanilla ginger rum, hot chocolate, whipped cream, toasted marshmallow

Matt Sterner
More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
