Regardless how bad Texas lags in legalizing cannabis, San Antonio bars and restaurants are recognizing the unofficial stoner holiday in a big way this year. From drink specials to live music, multiple spots are offering something special — and legal, of course — on Wednesday, April 20.
Twin Peaks locations are giving each guest a free “munchie," allowing diners the choice between apps such as chips and queso, fried pickles or mozzarella cheese bites. The chain is also offering a discount on its Liquid Marijuana shots and cocktails. Guests can enjoy the shot for $4 or the cocktail for $6. Multiple locations, twinpeaks.com.
