GUSTOS Launches Cocktail Menu 

Golden-fried tots and an orange-kissed Old Fashioned are the perfect Panther City combo. GUSTOS burger bar + more recently launched a cocktail menu that eschews complex cocktails in favor of fun mixed drinks that pair well with smash burgers and fried appetizers. On a recent visit, I ordered the Tecate + Espolon boilermaker then the Maker's Mark draft-poured Old Fashioned. Other cocktail options include Aunt B’s Marg (Milagro Silver, Grand Marnier, lime juice, agave) and the Dirty Paloma (La Gritona Tequila and grapefruit Stiegl Radler).
