Trace just opened over at the W Hotel on Third Street, replacing XYZ and bringing some new design cred to the space -- it was designed by acclaimed residential architect Stanley Saitowitz, who used as his inspiration an Ambrose Bierce poem that describes San Francisco as "a point on a map of fog."

There's a new Upstairs Bar as well, which is the hotel's only bar for the next couple of months while they remodel the lobby bar, which is currently closed. And on the new bar menu we found a refreshing warm-weather drink you'll all most likely enjoy. It's a twist on vodka lemonade with our favorite spirit, gin, and a touch of spice.

Jalapeno Lemonade

1.5 oz. Junipero gin
0.75 oz. fresh lime juice
0.75 oz. mild jalapeno syrup
0.75 oz. freshly juiced cucumber
Soda

Combine ingredients and serve in a tall glass over ice with a splash of soda water on top, garnish with a cucumber spear .
