THOUGH THE OFFICIAL START OF SUMMER IS STILL A WEEK AWAY, here in the South it’s already hot. Time to cool down with one of these two unique, brand-new cocktails from Atlanta’s nostalgic all-day taco shop, Muchacho. Vibrant in both color and flavor, these cocktails can be easily recreated at home.
Lead Bartender, Erin Walsh created the Mary Jane to transport you to a luxurious and relaxing beach vacation, with the throwback deliciousness of melon liquor. The Stone Fox, created by Chris Ashley, Bar Manager at Muchacho, mixes the smokiness and savoriness of a summer cookout with the sweetness of summer strawberries at their peak.
Muchacho is a casual SoCal inspired Atlanta BeltLine hotspot with playful offerings and a loyal fan base. Serving coffee in the morning and margaritas at night, they just launched a new summer cocktail menu, and these two standouts have quickly become their most ordered cocktails since the new launch. We think you’ll agree.
Or better yet, go to Muchacho and get in on the fun! muchacho.com
