Miracle At Daquiri Time Out
Tis the season of holiday magic and miracles - people
are nicer to each other, politics is (largely) put aside,
hope fills the air, and wonderful surprises can be
right around the corner.
In Galveston, a bit of that unbridled joy has popped up at
a local favorite hangout in the trendy west Market Street
district: Daiquiri Time Out.
“During the holidays, we completely transform into
Miracle at Daiquiri Time Out. Our whole place is decked out
from wall-to-wall with holiday decorations. There’s festive
glassware and a full menu of holiday-themed cocktails,” said
owner Brad Stringer, who started the annual event in 2018.
The sparkling speakeasy is serving up irresistible
seasonal libations this year with such new monikers as
Christmapolitan, Snowball Old-Fashioned, Carol Barrel,
Koala Cooler, Marshmallows & Unicorns, Elfin’ Around #2,
Jingle Balls Nog, and Rudolph’s Replacement, just to name
a few.
The holiday pop-up-palooza continues throughout
December at DTO, a Galveston hot spot steps away from
Maceo’s Spice & Import in the uber-cool WEMA District
(west of Market Street).
“We have bigger and better decorations every year,
like the giant 26-foot inflatable Santa on the roof, and
blow-up igloos. We’ll have dancing lights and a light arch

outside. We’ve got some fun events planned, too.”
Events include Christmas movies shown on the patio every
Thursday, beginning at 7pm through December 21, courtesy
of Martini Theatre. The featured movies include Scrooged
on December 7, Batman Returns on December 14, and How
the Grinch Stole Christmas on December 21. Food will be
provided pop up style by Con Lagrimas.
And, as in year’s past, toy donations are accepted for the
Galveston Police Department’s Blue Santa program, which
helps ensure area children have gifts at this special time of
the year.
Stringer said his annual themed holiday event is just one
of the many on the island that illustrates just how close-knit
and welcoming Galveston is, not just during the holiday
season, but all year long.
“The holidays in Galveston are already super special. It’s a
great way for us to be a part of the holiday tradition here on
the island,” he said.
DTO is located at 2701 Market Street. Miracle at Daiquiri
Time Out can be enjoyed from 4pm-12am Sunday –
Thursday and 4pm-2am on Friday and Saturday through the
