Thirsty Thursday: 4 must-try drinks at Otro Bar

San Antonio’s newest rooftop bar serves up savory sips perfect for Cinco de Mayo

SAN ANTONIO – Otro Bar prides itself on providing a “one-of-a-kind elevated setting” and when they say “elevated”, they mean it, literally.

Otro is located on the third floor of the Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk right across the street from the Aztec Theater and the views from this rooftop bar are breathtaking and truly Instagram-friendly.

And oh yeah, the drinks are great too. Here are some faves:

Tequila-based drink with Strawberry Basil Jarabe. Need we say more? (KSAT)
This Selena-inspired tequila-based cocktail includes a spicy tamarind and grapefruit soda that's made in-house. OK, we'll try it--anything for Selena. (KSAT)
This perfect pick-me-up cocktail is all the rage. It's even topped with espresso beans. (KSAT)
This drink was inspired by the 1862 French invasion of Mexico. (KSAT)
