“Bar Association”

🟡🔵🔵🔵

🔵🔵

Hello Strands fans. I found today’s puzzle quite tricky, even though I immediately saw through the theme’s pun – “Bar Association”.

I immediately started looking for words associated with alcohol and immediately recognized the spangram from COCKTAILS.

That made things easier, but I still had a hard time finding everything. The right side didn’t cause me too many problems and I was able to connect MARTINI at the top right and SIDECAR underneath relatively easily. Only STINGER could be made from the remaining letters on this side of the grid.

But the two words on the left gave me far more trouble, as I assumed they might be intertwined.

After a longer time than I care to admit, I finally realized that the stray “Z” was part of ZOMBIE, and all that was left to decipher was the anagram of “SOMOCILTNOA.” It was, of course, COSMOPOLITIC.
