They say sharing is caring. Spread some love this spring by enjoying these shareable Valley cocktails that the whole table is bound to enjoy.

Élephante Punch Bowls
Élephante

Guests at Élephante can turn any of the menu’s delicious shaken cocktails – of which there are many – into a shareable punch bowl. Guest favorites include the Bird of a Feather, which combines gin, lemon, grapefruit, Bergamot Rosolio, earl grey tea, and sparkling water; Secret Garden, featuring mezcal, lime, hibiscus, aloe, and cucumber; and Cactus Water, a blend of vodka, lime, watermelon, lavender, and aperitivo. $120. www.elephanterestaurants.com.

Face Planter Punch
Clever Koi

A bold and boozy update to the classic scorpion bowl, this punch packs quite the punch! The base of the cocktail is the combination of Hamilton Dark Rum, Goslings Rum, and Le Carre Brandy. Kiwi and pineapple juices are then added, which provide tropical notes, as well as bitters, creating a complex, layered sip that is dangerously smooth. Bonus: It is served in a bowl designed with an actual face. $32. www.cleverkoi.com.

Tabernas Tajine
Quartz

A desert mirage in a bowl, Tabernas Tajine channels the landscapes of Europe and North Africa with a rich fusion of Spanish and Moroccan flavors. Built for sharing, the cocktail blends the smoky heat of harissa with floral rose, fresh cantaloupe agua fresca, and nutty tiger nut horchata. Spanish Cardenal Mendoza Brandy, Patron Ahumado, and Manzanilla Sherry bring a potent kick to the party, balanced by the citrus of tangerine, lime and a sparkling wine finish. $65. www.quartzphx.com.

Spa Water Punch Bowl
The Montauk

Meant to transport diners to the Hamptons in every sip, this shareable punchbowl – shaped like a shell for added wow factor – is the perfect refresher for a warm spring day. It starts with Effen Cucumber Vodka, crafted with vine-ripened cucumbers, and is complemented by kiwi syrup, ginger liqueur, a splash of lime juice and soda water. A minimum of four people is required to enjoy, and the bowl serves up to 12 drinks. $85. www.themontaukaz.com.

Sk8er Boi
Hash Kitchen

This sharable drink for two is a nostalgic throwback to the roller rink days, served in a blue, sparkly roller skate cup that guests can take home as a keepsake after their last sip. Inside, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, blue raspberry syrup and Red Bull come together for a sweet and energetic cocktail. Complete with rainbow-striped candy laces, the roller skate adds a fun, photo-worthy moment to any brunch or lunch outing. $28. www.hashkitchen.com.

Marg Mosa Towers
SugarJam The Southern Kitchen

Just how big is this tower? Try 96 ounces! Filled to the brim of a custom-made clear beverage dispenser, this shareable cocktail combines the best of margaritas and mimosas by offering a massive house margarita paired with Champagne as its base. Then, guests may choose between mango, prickly pear, lychee, pineapple, blueberry, passionfruit, kiwi, guava, or blueberry for an added kick of fruity flavor. $150. www.sjsouthernkitchen.com.
