Aaron Franklin’s Uptown Sports Club will bring nostalgic holiday cheer to East Austin this December, offering a laid-back place to celebrate the season with a hot cocktail, a meal and festive service. The neighborhood spot recently enclosed the outdoor patio area, which has been fitted with heaters to keep patrons toasty in the cooler temperatures. There will be more than 2,500 colored lights, as well as a tree, tinsel and plenty of old-school decorations that evoke the classic film “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.”
Along with Uptown’s everyday boozy and zero-proof classics, the bar team has created a special holiday drink menu of Cozy Cocktails. Limited-time libations include: Bar 5 Cider Toddy (with bourbon, apple brandy, apple cider, Angostura bitters and lemon); Fountain of Youth Toddy (with Toki Japanese Whiskey, ginger turmeric simple syrup, orange bitters and lemon); Run It Back (with spiced rum, Lost Irish Whiskey, amaretto and steamed cinnamon oat milk); Whipped Cream Jiminy Cricket (a chilled cocktail with bourbon, Amaro Montenegro, Amaro Averna, Creme de Menthe, honey, chocolate bitters); Moose-shine (a frozen cocktail with High West Double Rye, white and spiced rums, housemade coquito and whipped cream); and Rooted in Excellence (a zero-proof chilled cocktail with Three Spirits Livener, Seedlip Spice, chicory, cinnamon oat milk cold foam and a decaf coffee wash).
