Named after the B, D, and 4 trains that service Yankee Stadium Station in The Bronx, the BD4 was inspired by Albie’s childhood trips to watch the Yankees play with his father. While there, they would eat chocolate-and-vanilla twist ice cream out of tiny baseball helmets, and his unique riff on the classic Manhattan is a nod to those flavors.
