Henry’s Majestic
Inspired by Hunter Thompson’s acclaimed 1970 essay, the Decadent And The Depraved cocktail is as much a symptom as a cause of the Kentucky Debry’s decadence and depravity. While there are numerous julep recipes out in the world, Henry’s Majestic serves a universally accepted version that would make any Tennessean proud. It is made with Thai basil leaves, black sugar simple syrup, and Woodford Reserve, and will be available from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. May 5 for $5.

 

Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse
The West End eatery will offer a variety of specials for Cinco de Mayo as well as Dallas’ West End Fest, which falls on the same day. For Cinco de Mayo specifically, the restaurant will offer a specially crafted cocktail appropriately titled the Tex-Mex. The cocktail is a clean and simple iteration on the classic margarita, combining Jalapeno-Infused Y.O. Tequila Blanco, Cointreau, Fresh Lime Juice and Club Soda and served with a festive, tri-color ice cube. Interested guests don’t need to wait as this $10 cocktail is available throughout the month of May. Additionally, Y.O. will offer half-off appetizers all day on May 5 on the patio so diners can see the buzzing West End festival.
