Get Lit: A Hanukkah Pop-Up

You cut Austin and the city bleeds Christmas bars. And you know what? As the guy who spends most of my work hours scanning for cool events to recommend, I’ll say what needs to be said: That’s so BORING! No more of this mishegoss; we’ve got better shit to show ya. Such as Kitty Cohen’s returning pop-up featuring fantastic drinks, food, and more for the Festival of Lights. Even the most gratuitous of goy will be won over by the Maccabee’s Knees and Oy Fashioned cocktails – although the real star here is the Latke Punch. Made from potato vodka, apple cider, ginger liqueur, and lemon, this splashy sip reminds me of my own grandpa frying up potato pancakes in the kitchen. – James Scott

Through Jan. 2

Up All Night: Espresso Martini Week

Upon a recent trip to Chili’s, my dear friend remarked, “Does it always come with three beans?” about the restaurant’s trendy caffeinated cocktail offering. To be honest, the beans make the beverage – so trust in these local drink domains to sling a “you espresso” to impresso. Big name bars the Flower Shop, Holiday on 7th, Kinda Tropical, Cavalier, Daydreamer, Kitty Cohen’s, Nickel City, Teddy’s Bar, the Treasury, Volstead, and Murray’s Tavern will offer special-edition espresso martinis all week – each purchase entering you in a chance to win an exclusive T-shirt. Nab one at Holiday’s kickoff event this Saturday, Dec. 7, where a vendor market complements cookies and Queer Vinyl Collective. – James Scott
