It’s hot! Which icy local beverages are you sipping to cool down?
“I’ll have an icy, low-ABV Slipstream Italian pilsner from Wren Südhalle, please. Crisp, clean and quaffable.”
— Craig Outhier, editor
“I can’t get through summer without the frozen lemonade – regular and strawberry – at Eat Up Drive In. On the boozy side, I love my birthstone cocktail at Quartz, the coconutty Sea of Aquamarine. I also happily risk brain freeze for the Polar Puppy in The Cave inside Quartz.”
— Leah LeMoine, managing editor
“I’m a sucker for fresh, ice-cold lemonade. A few of my local faves include the house-made classic from Ingo’s Tasty Food, AZ Lemonade Stand’s prickly pear and the cucumber-mint and blueberry-basil flavors from Salad and Go.”
— Madison Rutherford, associate editor
“Not only does Persepshen rock the Arizona-grown, cured and cooked protein game, but they also whip out this amazing Megroni, which is a Negroni, but with my favorite booze variety, mezcal! So yum!”
— Mirelle Inglefield, art director
“My favorite treat during these record-breaking heat warnings is anything from La Michoacana Premium. I personally love the fresas con crema (strawberries with cream). It is so fresh and creamy and absolutely lovely while running errands, even if I finish it in two seconds because it’s that good.”
— Angelina Aragon, managing art director
