Happy New Year! If you’re reading this, you’re probably gearing up to get back in your full routine for 2020. Today’s Thirsty Thursday post features an experience review and double-take on two great drinks I tried at Hide in Dallas, TX. There’s a bit of good news and bad news here. The good news is you’ll get to find out specifics on these great holiday drinks. The bad news – the drinks are no longer available (since the holiday pop has ended).

Hide brought in the holiday season in style with their Miracle at Hide Christmas Pop Up. I got a chance to check it out earlier this week and tried two of their signature drinks while I was there. The first drink I tried was the Yippie Ki Yay Mother F$%^#@r! If you’re a fan of rum drinks this one is for you. Overall, the drink has a strong tropical taste. Although the drink came in a Santa shaped mug, it’s got a serious bite. What’s in it? Barbados Rum, Cachaca, Trinidad Overproof Rum, Purple Yam & Coconut Orgreat, and Pineapple. Amazing.

Now, for the second drink – SanTaRex. This drink comes out in a mug suited for Jurassic Park and it tastes just as wild. The flavors here are stronger, with a little less of a festive feel and more of nightcap vibe. The drink includes Rye Whiskey, Oloroso Sherry, Spiced Apple Cider Concentrate, Lemon Juice, Hard Cider, and Baked Apple Bitters. If you like apples, this drink is the perfect gift for you.

I plan on visiting Hide again soon, without all their holiday flare. Their green chile chicken tamales and chips and queso are pretty tasty too. Visit Hide for some unforgettable cocktails. However, you’ll just have to wait until the end of the year to experience their Miracle at Hide Christmas Pop-Up again.

Bottoms up….it’s Thirsty Thursday!
