This year, Santa has decided to skip Christmas and jet off to a tropical paradise instead. Luckily, that island happens to be right here in Texas! Renowned cocktail personality Jeff “Beachbum” Berry and award-winning bartender Brad Smith have joined forces to create Sippin’ Santa. This seasonal pop-up – a companion to the ever-popular Miracle – features a combination of holiday and island décor, and it’s coming to four bars in the Lone Star State.
Hop on your surfboard and ride the waves into the holiday season at Sippin’ Santa, a Christmas-themed tiki bar with 36 locations across the U.S.
Facebook/Beachbum Berry Presents: Sippin’ Santa The pop-up is coming to four bars right here in Texas: Nickel City in Austin, RoPo & Logan in Dallas, Night Shift in Houston, and Sloane’s in Waco.
Upon stepping inside, you’ll be immediately transported into a winter wonderland - with an island twist.
Sippin’ Santa Pop Up Santa has traded out his usual fur-trimmed getup for a Hawaiian shirt, straw hat, and sandals, and he’s ready to lounge on the beach with a cocktail in hand.
Much like Miracle, Sippin’ Santa boasts a hodgepodge of over-the-top holiday lights and decorations that would give Clark Griswold a run for his money.

The cocktails offer a unique blend of festive and tropical flavors, and it will be love at first sip for your taste buds.
