The Dark Lady, Street’s Fine Chicken – Dallas

Inspired by the Cher song “Dark Lady”, this cocktail features Equality Vodka – a company which donates a portion of their sales to LGBT organizations that champion equality. To that lime juice, muddled black berries (‘Dark’), a touch of St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur (‘Lady’) and soda water come together rounding out beautiful, perfectly balanced drink.

You don’t have to be a fan of the Dallas Cowboys to know that Dak Prescott has become the talk of the town. Why not enjoy a cocktail named after him while you enjoy the game on Sunday. Whiskey, lemon juice, simple syrup and a splash of sprite come together creating a tasty drink that will go down easy while watching The Boys play.

Oaxacan Old Fashion, Cantina Laredo – Multiple locations throughout the metroplex

This drink is a Mexican twist on a cocktail classic. Del Maguey VIDA Mezcal, 1800 Añejo Tequila, Monin Agave Nectar and Angostura Bitters are served over a Luxardo Cherry-Orange Ice Cube creating a slow sipping cocktail with evolving flavors as the ice-cube melt. BONUS: Don’t pass on eating the cherry. Once the ice-cube fully melts, fish out the cherry. Luxardo cherries are luxury maraschino cherries. The flavor is divine!
