Review: Snow and Company

Monday January 23, 2012
I love a good cocktail, and from slurpees to margaritas, I love a good frozen anything. Combine the two and you have a frozen artesian cocktail that is a concoction like no other.

I had heard rumblings of a frozen cocktail concept opening in the metro since last year-- and was excited to hear that Snow and Co., amid a few setbacks, had opened their doors in the Crossroads late this fall.

Snow is thankfully lacking in this winter's forecast, so we headed to the Crossroads to enjoy some frozen cocktails at their finest.
