What a glorious day it was more than a decade ago when Dallas bartenders started raiding the kitchen for their drinks. Cocktails have never been better, more creative — and in this case, seasonal. Just as Dallas restaurants roll out seasonal menus, so do Dallas bars, introducing drinks that call on the flavors and ingredients of the season.

These 6 establishments have all introduced special, limited-edition cocktail drinks that are perfect for fall sipping and holiday toasting.
