Thursday Sips & Nibbles

I'm back again with a new edition of Sips & Nibbles, my regular column where I highlight some interesting, upcoming food and drink events. I hope everyone dines out safely, tips well and are nice to their servers.

1) From July 2-5, Margaritas Mexican Restaurant will be the ultimate watering hole for its namesake cocktail while honoring America. The annual Independence Weekend Fiesta will be a four-day celebration with festively crafted drinks and tropical staycation vibes.

Margaritas will kick off the fiesta with a trio of red, white and blue margarita options available for only $6 each: a signature classic Margarita, a Strawberry Margarita, and a Blue Hawaiirita. From Thursday to Sunday, Margs also will be pouring a $12 margarita flight with four mini margs (original, strawberry, Blue Hawaii and blueberry).

Also featured in July is the brand’s signature “Margarita of the Month,” the Pop Star Margarita ($10) with Hornitos Plata tequila, Watermelon Pucker, coconut puree and pineapple juice finished with a watermelon Pop Rocks rim.

2) Kane’s Donuts and Vitamin Sea Brewing have teamed up to give dads something they actually want this Father’s Day: donuts and beer (well, beer in a donut). Introducing the Vitamin Sea Summer Donut, a refreshing fruit-forward glazed yeast-style donut made with Vitamin Sea Summer IPA, available exclusively Father’s Day weekend: Saturday, June 20th, and Sunday, June 21st at all Kane’s Donuts locations.

Crafted using Vitamin Sea's iconic Summer beer, a fruity, juicy New England IPA that has notes of orange, mango, and pineapple, this limited-edition donut feels like summer in every bite. It features a soft, fluffy yeast dough dipped in a glaze made with Kane’s Signature Honey Dip that has been infused with reduced Vitamin Sea Summer IPA. 

“Father’s Day is all about celebrating the dads and father figures who make life sweeter, and we’re excited to do that in true Kane’s fashion,” said Maria Delios, Co-Owner of Kane’s Donuts. “Partnering with Vitamin Sea Brewing brings together two local favorites for a fun, limited-edition donut perfect for the holiday.”

“Partnering with Kane’s Donuts for Father’s Day was a natural fit,” said Dino Funari, Co-Founder of Vitamin Sea Brewing. “They’re a beloved local brand with an incredible following, and we loved the idea of creating something fun, seasonal, and unexpected for dads to enjoy.”

The Vitamin Sea Summer Donut will be available in limited quantities at all three Kane’s locations.
