Verde Garden

Houston’s 14 Hottest Cocktail Bars, November 2023

"In addition to its tantalizing ceviches, addicting salsa flights, and enchiladas, this Tex-Mex beer garden is a surefire drinking destination. Verde Garden features two rooms — one in which guests can order a beer from its bar with numerous taps, and another where margaritas and cocktails are made fresh on the spot. Try the signature Verde margarita, a herbaceous frozen made with mint and parsley. Channel a Mexican beach with Tulum Vibes — a frozen drink made with vodka, white cacao, lemon, and passionfruit with a kick of habanero — or go for the El Toxico, a smooth mix of sotol, dry vermouth, cassis, Aperol, and decanter bitters that makes for an easy sip. Then, enjoy outside on its charming patio." - Brittany Britto Garley
