Where to Find a Good Cocktail in Every SEC Town

The National

University of Georgia, Athens

The idea behind the food at The National is to bring the simplicity of Mediterranean cooking methods to delicious locally grown ingredients. The sophisticated cocktails, on the other hand, are not so dressed-down. Almost all incorporate house-made infusions, syrups, and even sodas. Try The National’s own house tonic with gin, vodka, or bourbon, and if you’re a Pimm’s Cup fan, order a Pimm’s Cooler #2, made with a blueberry-white wine reduction.
