Eataly Las Vegas, the enormous Italian marketplace at Park MGM, might be best known for its pizzas and charcuterie boards, but it also has goodies by the glassful from regions all over the boot-shaped country. Eataly features several bars, each with its own menu of cocktail delights, along with wine and beer.

Stop by L’Aperitivo, where the featured cocktail, Sangbrusco, is an Italian twist on sangria, made with fresh fruit, Ketel One Botanical peach vodka, Cocchi Americano Rosa, Lambrusco and lemon juice. At Enoteca, order a delightfully refreshing twist on a classic Italian sip, the limoncello spritz—a mix of Pallini limoncello, Flor prosecco and a splash of soda. Those who love a classic Italian cocktail should stop at Gran Caffé Milano for the Milano Torino, a blend of Cocchi Vermouth di Torino, Campari and orange.

At Manzo, the marketplace’s reservation-recommended elevated dining spot, you’ll find the G&T No. 6 1/2 cocktail, a more floral version of a classic gin and tonic, mixed with Monkey 47 gin, Empress 1908 gin and Lurisia Acqua Tonica. And perfect for the warm weather is the refreshing and delicious Frosé Blanc at La Pizza e La Pasta. The slushy-type cocktail mixes Ketel One Botanical Cucumber & Mint vodka, white wine, lime juice and Kelvin Slush Co. Frosé Blanc mixture.
