Where to Order To-Go Cocktails in Jersey City and Hoboken

by Ariana Lena

Last week, Governor Phil Murphy signed a bill allowing New Jersey restaurants to sell to-go cocktails, thanks to a petition drafted by local Jersey City restaurant, Cellar335. With this bill passed, local restaurants who are struggling to stay open due to the pandemic can now make additional revenue and sales so that they can hopefully stay open until restrictions are lifted. 

To celebrate this news, we put together a list for readers who are looking to pair their take-out order with a lemonade vodka or rum punch. Talk about perfect timing for Memorial Day weekend coming up!
