by Michelle Garay

To-go cocktails have pumped some much-needed rejuvenation into the Jersey City and Hoboken dining scenes.

With a variety of colorful and summer-friendly cocktails now available at your to-go disposal, you might be at a crossroads when it comes to deciding which drink to set your sights on. Lucky for you, we’ve done the digging (and some sipping) to uncover nine cocktails from local establishments that you’ll certainly want to add to your list. Trust us—there are no pour decisions below.
