The Post at Lamar Park has been a trailblazer in Corpus Christi’s craft cocktail scene, and with its commitment to creativity, quality and innovation, it continues to set the standard for mixology. Its revamped menu features innovative cocktails created by award-winning mixologist Michael Green, and blends inventiveness and technique, proving that great cocktails are as much about the experience as the flavor.

While most bars lean into warm, spiced flavors for the cooler months, Green took a different approach. “I wanted something bright and fun,” he shared. “Our cold months are so mild here, and we get a lot of sunshine — these drinks are made for those kinds of days.”

This philosophy is evident in the latest lineup, which bursts with vibrant, refreshing flavors like those of the Apasionada and the Sea Witch. The tropical allure of passionfruit mingling with Minjenta Reposado, Aperol and lime juice with a zesty Tajin rim make each Apasionada sip like a sun-drenched escape. The coastal-inspired flavors of the Sea Witch combine Hendrick’s Neptunia Gin, Lillet Blanc, fresh lime juice, simple syrup and grapes, delivering a floral yet citrusy profile embodying the Gulf breeze.

Green’s passion for experimentation is evident not only in the flavor profiles, but in the techniques used.

“One of our cocktails, The Daystar, uses three different techniques — clarification, juicing and carbonation,” Green explained. “It’s about layering flavors in unexpected ways.”

Featuring Dripping Springs vodka, Cocchi Americano, clarified lemon juice and Granny Smith apples that are juiced and then clarified, The Daystar is carbonated, bottled and capped in-house for a crisp, ready-to-pour experience.

Another technique used at The Post is infusion. From grilled peach tequila and pineapple-infused Mezcal to rice-washed gin, each element is designed to enhance depth and complexity.

Alongside the multiple new drinks on the menu, The Post has also introduced new food items that pair seamlessly with its cocktail offerings. The Georgia Peach balances sweet and savory with grilled peaches, prosciutto, shaved parmesan and candied pecans on a bed of arugula, drizzled with wildflower honey balsamic vinaigrette. For heartier fare, the Chicken Pesto Sandwich offers a choice of grilled or fried chicken breast with pesto sauce and parmesan on a ciabatta bun, served with crispy garlic fries.

With this latest cocktail menu that embraces bold flavors, inventive techniques and a keen eye for trends, Green and his team have once again raised the bar. Whether you’re a longtime enthusiast or a newcomer to the craft scene, these new offerings invite you to sip, savor and experience the artistry firsthand.
