Horror-themed pop-up bar Black Lagoon will once again haunt San Antonio.
The celebration of spooky libations will run Thursday, Oct. 9, through Sunday, Nov. 2, at Three Star Bar, 512 E. Grayson St., the same spot that hosted the touring cocktail experience last fall.
This year, Black Lagoon will bring along a new lineup of dreadful drinks, including the Corpse Flower, an ube margarita with Amontillado sherry, and the Midnight Forever, a dark-as-your-soul vodka cocktail featuring black sesame, miso falernum, sherry and lemon, according to organizers.
Some drinks will come served in their own macabre tiki mugs, such as the Creature’s Curse, an Old Fashioned with rice-washed bourbon, roasted sweet potato, and fig. Meanwhile, the Nocturna Colada will mix black and gold rum with tropical fruit, cold-brew liquor and cardamom bitters.
The ghoulish pop-up also is bringing mocktails to Three Star Bar, including the White Zombie, flavored with coconut, grapefruit, cinnamon and lime.
Three Star Bar’s bartenders will dress in frightening attire for the duration of the pop-up, and the bar will be transformed into a crypt full of frights thanks to fog, lasers and moody lighting. Enhancing the experience is a mixtape of goth, punk and metal — hopefully including hits from the aforementioned White Zombie.
Speciality merchandise including glasses, mugs and shirts also will be available for purchase.
The Black Lagoon will serve up its Halloween-themed drinks simultaneously in 38 cities across the U.S. and Canada.
The woman-led pop-up is helmed by bar maestros Erin Hayes and Kelsey Ramage. Since hosting their first ghastly pop-up in 2021, the two have put their all into cultivating an unnerving experience with the Black Lagoon.
