Forget beer — Alamo Ritz uncorks liquor

A genuine cinema sipper

With savory potions like the Alamojito, the Alamo Ritz on Sixth Street is breaking from the 10-year Alamo tradition of just wine and beer as potent potables.

Break out the shot glasses!

The Ritz has acquired a liquor license. And there you go.

Expect movie and drink tie-ins, such as the Scotch Flight, a feast of scotch tasting during “Iron Man,” because its airborne hero likes his scotch. And these others:

  • The Cinco de Mayo “Three Amigos” Quote-along and Feast kicks off with a shot of Herradura Silver Tequila. Courses of the feast itself will be paired with top shelf margaritas.

  • For “Sex and the City,” cosmos will be served, natch.

  • When Master Pancake Theater heckles the James Bond classic “Goldfinger” prepare your gullet for “shaken, not stirred” vodka martinis.

Take a gulp of the booze news — including sample cocktails and prices — HERE.
