As Cocktail Week winds down, it's time to vote for the best cocktail in Philly right now. Not the best of all-time, or the pretty-good-but-can-be-great-with-a-little-tweaking. Just the very best boozy tipple in our area at the moment.
Here's how it works: On Monday, we asked all of you to nominate the cocktail you think should be included in the field. Tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. we will shut down the polls, and the top 3 vote-getters will be considered finalists.
Then, the Eater editors and a group of alcohol professionals will hold a secret ballot and assign point values to each drink and a winner will be declared at 4:30 p.m..

The Antho at Opa - Cucumber vodka and lemon, with dill.
Blues Explosion at Lemon Hill - George Dickle Tennessee whiskey, grapefruit juice, maple syrup, and angostura bitters.
