Cheers, Greenvillians. It’s officially time to celebrate #DrinkUpGreenville. From cold craft brews to cocktails, we’re honoring our beverage community this month.
Here’s where we’re celebrating:
Indaco, 40 W Broad St., Greenville
Stop by one of Greenville’s newest restaurants to sip on the “Go Compresa on the Plane” — made with Elijah Craig, strawberry-infused Aperol, house-made strawberry vinaigrette, Montenegro, and basil.
Lewis Barbecue, 214 Rutherford St., Greenville
This Texas-style barbecue spot just dropped a new summer cocktail — the “Drink Up Julep” is a twist on Lewis’ “Smoky Peach Julep” filled with SC peaches.
Thomas Creek, 2054 Piedmont Hwy., Greenville
Thomas Creek recently dropped its collab IPA with The Community Tap called the “Trifecta IPA” — a full bodied American IPA brewed with Citra hops with a potent nose of citrus and grapefruit notes. Plus, RSVP to celebrate Christmas in July at the brewery’s free summer celebration.
Keipi, 1320 Hampton Ave. Ext., Greenville
If you prefer wine, stop by Keipi on Wednesday when glasses are half-price, plus ask about their special summer selection.

The summer special “The Star Spangled Banger” is still on the menu + sign up for a cocktail class hosted by the Blind Fox Society on Monday, July 31.
Juniper, 315 S. Main St., Greenville
For the summer vibes, sip a “Waters be Roarin” — Reposada tequila, Pama, Blended Family peach liqueur, pink grapefruit syrup, orange cordial, hibiscus — served in a pouch and based on the “Roaring Waters” Capri Sun flavor.

Take it easy this summer by sipping on a “Take it Easy” — Patron Silver, Don Ciccio Finocchietto, lime cordial, Top Chico, and a pineapple prawn garnish.
The Press Room, 315 S. Main St., Greenville
It’s getting tropical in the AC Hotel’s speakeasy with the new drink “Tiki Told Me To”— Patron anejo, pineapple agae, Tiki bitters, and a flaming pineapple garnish.
Roost, 220 N. Main St., Greenville
A refreshing and fruity summer sipper — “Bubbles and Berries” — is available this summer featuring Ketel One Citron, currant, and champagne.
