One of the best bars in the world just opened in New York City — and its out-of-this-world drinks will make you rethink cocktails

• The Aviary is one of the best bars in the world. 
• Its owner, Grant Achatz, recently opened a new location inside the Mandarin Oriental hotel in New York City. 
• Highlights include a drink that's infused with the scent of everything bagels. 

The Aviary, which was named one of the best bars in the world earlier this year, recently opened a location inside the Mandarin Oriental hotel in New York City.

Complete with a view of Central Park and cocktails that redefine what mixology and bartending can be, the bar is a creation of Grant Achatz, the mastermind and chef behind Alinea, the best restaurant in America. 

We got to witness the making of three visually stunning and equally delicious cocktails — take a look, below.

The lounge seats 90 guests and is on the 35th floor of the hotel, providing sweeping views of Central Park below.

Assistant Bar Manager William Peet demonstrated how he makes the "Heart of Stone" cocktail. Here, he carefully places black and Rooibos tea leaves, pistachios, saffron, orange, fresno chile, and peach into a container.

A mixture of bourbon, whiskey, white port, and pistachio liqueur are then poured into the canister to infuse the flavors.
