Sip & Savor

While some friends are mapping out their summer roadtrips, you're busy creating a master list of frozen cocktails you plan to tip back with reckless abandon. 

Start your straw challenge at Pythian Market, the brand new food hall opening its doors TODAY. We've been swooning over the teaser shots of sin-sational watermelon palomas and peach sweet tea, and can't get enough of the Sip Sip Hooray frosé and daiquiri machines - six frozens at Bar 1908 will rotate every season. Gaze appreciatively on the interior art from local Brandan Bmike Odums while scanning 14 local vendors serving up a variety of Southern classics and twists like crawfish poutine from Fete au Fete, raw and cooked tempura fried Gulf oysters from Cru, and gourmet grilled cheese from Frencheeze. Add to it grab and go cold pressed juice from Squeezed, espresso from Roustabout Coffee Co. and Mediterranean eats from Little Fig for days you don't snag a banquette or high top. 

The plot thickens.
