Most Extravagant Cocktails to Indulge in on National Tequila Day

It seems like every day there’s another trendy holiday that the world is unnecessarily celebrating. There’s a Blame Someone Else Day, Flag Day, Talk like a Pirate Day, and just last week there was a National Apple Turnover Day. With so many days asking to be celebrated it makes you wish you could just have a day for drinking. Well luckily there is. July 24th is Tequila Day. The one day of the year where spending a Monday afternoon downing some margaritas is seen as festive. So, for those looking to celebrate another holiday, or just have a reason to extend your weekend fun, these are the top destinations for this year’s Tequila Day.

This one will take an army, so make sure you’re not celebrating tequila day alone. Gather up the troops and pick from any 3 unique gallon containers that are filled with a tequila infused drink. Serrano infused tequila, pear liqueur, watermelon, sage, lemon and agave, the over the top drink will leave you and your comrades in high spirits.

New York City’s most popular pizza joint is coming to South Beach

Where can you find the best pizza, New York City or Miami?

Your answer to that question might change in the next two weeks, when Manhattan’s Artichoke Basille’s Pizza takes over the kitchen at Ricky’s South Beach. The East Village pizzeria, famous for its creamy artichoke slice (and proverbial lines, especially at 3am), is opening its 12th location inside the Miami Beach bar/restaurant on July 20th.

It’s not a pop-up; Ricky’s new menu will be helmed by Artichoke founders, Francis Garcia and Sal Basille. That means guests can order slices and whole pies, including the Sicilian—a twice-baked pizza topped with olive oil, plum tomatoes and fresh basil—and the classic Artichoke—cheesy, creamy and topped with artichoke hearts, spinach, cream sauce, mozzarella and pecorino romano cheese.

Wrap-around-the-block lines, the kinds New Yorkers are used to making for a late-night slice, are to be expected—but we promise they’re so, so worth it.

The Best Ballpark Foods You Won’t Find in a Ballpark

Nearly a month into baseball season, and people everywhere are upping their intake of hot dogs, nachos and ice cream served in little helmets. Now, we’d never disparage such a grand pastime as eating ice cream in little helmets. But in the event that you’d like to enjoy some better-than-your-average ballpark foods in a different setting—say, in a bar or restaurant, with the game on TV—then you’re in luck.

No tickets required.

The standard: A cheesesteak.

The upgrade: This cheesesteak. It’s shaved ribeye, jalapeño jack whiz, provolone, peppers and onions on a sesame baguette. And all that’s topped with crispy onions for some extra panache. Halves & Wholes, Miami
