The Tastiest Treats in Tampa

When you're on vacation in Tampa, you know as well as anyone that it's mostly about the food and drink you get to indulge in that makes the vacation so memorable. So, what's so good about the food and drink scene in Tampa, anyway? Well, keep reading to find out the things you can't miss out on from ice cold beers to crafted cocktails in Tampa, FL. In addition to food and drinks you can't miss, you can rely on advice from a blog post by Nicholas Trobiano, a Tampa Bay influencer, to lead you to some of the best restaurants. 

Tequila, Tequila 

Nothing screams vacation quite like tequila. If you're going to a Mexican restaurant or want to make it a Mexican-food themed night, don't forget the tequila. You can make margaritas, which are probably the most popular when paired with chips and queso or fajitas. Trobiano recommends you visit Miguelitos Taqueria Y Tequilas for the best margarita.   

Beer and Brats 

Cheat meals and vacations seem to simultaneously go hand in hand. So why not indulge in an ice-cold beer and a burger or brat at a Tampa Bay bar and grill? There are plenty of options for a quality bar and grill in this area. Look for ones with a patio, since that is obviously one of the best reasons to vacation in Tampa. 

Something Stronger? 

In case you're in the mood for something stronger and tequila isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of vodka cocktails. The Moscow mule comes to mind first. Trobiano recommends you check out Mandarin Hide for one of the best in Tampa Bay. Or, perhaps you're looking for another vodka concoction. Try a martini or a lemon drop instead. 

Just Like the Pirates 

If you're feeling more like Jack Sparrow and looking for a rum beverage, try a classic mojito. After a day basking in the sun (or while you're basking in the sun), a refreshing rum mojito is the perfect recipe. If you're more of an ICEE fan, try a strawberry daiquiri. Another common drink in the hands of Tampa Bay vacation goers is the classic Pina Colada. 

Of course, it's recommended to switch off between alcohol and water when you're in the intense Tampa Bay sun. But, one thing is for sure. When it's time to have a drink in your hand, there are plenty of delicious food and crafted cocktails in Tampa, FL. And as always, please drink responsibly.
