Spring has arrived, and there’s no better way to embrace Sunday Fundays and happy hour than at Narwhal’s Crafted.
Since opening in 2016, Narwhal’s has become a go-to destination for its signature crafted frozen cocktails — not just on summer days, but all year long. If frozen cocktails aren’t your thing, Narwhal’s offers draft cocktails as an alternative, along with a vast selection of non-alcoholic drinks. The vibe at Narwhal’s combines urban touches, like high exposed ceilings, with subtle nautical decorative elements, such as hanging ropes and anchors. Whether you’re chatting with friends, family, or even a solo date, it’s the perfect spot before heading to a Cardinals game or concert.
The spring lineup welcomes back some fan favorites designed to cater to all tastes, from sweet to bitter, with light, floral notes that are perfect for breaking free from the winter blues. Each cocktail is intentional, made from scratch using fresh, premium ingredients — no high-fructose corn syrup or artificial colors with a variety of spirit options. Want more than one? Their captivating cocktail flights are thoughtfully curated by appearance and color palette, making the ordering experience even more fun for the perfect photo op.
A few must-tries this spring include the Golden Mango Margarita, which blends gold and silver tequilas, triple sec, mango, pineapple and lime for a refreshing tropical treat. For something a bit lighter, try the Blueberry Lavender Aviation — a crisp, citrusy cocktail made with gin, crème de violette, maraschino liqueur, blueberry lavender simple syrup and lemon. For those seeking a dairy-free option, the Key Lime Pie is creamy and citrusy made with silver rum, whipped cream vodka, graham cracker simple syrup, coconut, lime and finished with vodka-infused whipped cream.
A standout favorite is the eye-catching Dragon Fruit Vodka Tonic — a vibrant, fuchsia colored cocktail that will be sure to turn heads. Made with an in-house tonic tincture featuring citrus, chinchona bark, turmeric, and more, this refreshing drink is sweetened only with the natural sugars from dragon fruit and agave nectar, making it a great, refreshing low-sugar option.
Narwhal’s has three locations: Midtown St. Louis (3906 Laclede Ave.), St. Charles (1450 Beale St., #125), and Chesterfield (17081 N. Outer 40 Road, #206).
