We've rounded up the tastiest sips from this week's posts so you don't miss anything delicious!

Top Sips in Serious Eats: Drinks

1. Latte Art: How to Draw a Rosetta on Your Coffee
"You're ready to start pouring, Picasso. Check out the slideshow for step-by-step tips."

2. Do You Wish Your Vodka Had More Flavor?
"The language of vodka marketing tends to focus on purity: virgin wheat, quadruple-distilled-through-diamonds. Not so with the latest product from Karlsson's—they've just released their first vintage vodka, which is made entirely from the 2008 crop of 'Old Swedish Red' potatoes."

3. Bartender's Choice: 5 Cocktails at Bar Agricole, San Francisco
"The James Beard Foundation chose Bar Agricole as one of the five finalists for this year's inaugural Outstanding Bar Program award, alongside Chicago's Violet Hour and The Aviary, and New York's PDT and Pegu Club."

4. 4 Quick Ways to Maintain Your Coffee Grinder
"A little diligence and regular care will keep things up to snuff—the first step is admitting you have a problem."


5. Heavyweight Beer: 9 Stellar Barleywines from the U.S.
"Barleywines, even in a field of brews with ever-increasing ABVs, are among the biggest of the bunch. Here are 9 you should know."

6. Celebrate Passover with a Sipping Seder
"Cocktail enthusiasts Rob Corwin and Danny Jacobs have proposed a new kind of a seder to explore the story of Passover, with a cocktail to represent every symbolic element on the seder plate."

7. First Look: Cocktails at Ginny's Supper Club in Harlem
"It's not easy to design a cocktail menu for a bar like Ginny's Supper Club, the swank new spot opened by Chef Marcus Samuelsson and partner Andrew Chapman located under his flagship Red Rooster."

8. Snapshots from Chile: Wine Country, Old and New
"Many of the vines you find in Chile are twice as old as those you'd see in France, since they didn't suffer from the phylloxera epidemic that destroyed most of Europe's vineyards in the late 19th century."

9. From Behind the Bar: On Naming Cocktails
"Before people look at a cocktail's ingredients on a menu, they look at its name, and first impressions are lasting impressions."
