Granada is meant to be sipped slowly. Between the Alhambra, the tapas and the buzz of Bib-Rambla, the city invites you to sit down, watch the afternoon go by and raise a glass. If you're wondering what to order, here's our pick of the cocktails that work best in the centre.
1. House Negroni
The quintessential Italian classic: equal parts gin, red vermouth and bitter, stirred and served with a flamed orange peel. Bitter, elegant and perfect to start the night. At Caroca we make it with orange peeled fresh in front of you.
2. Caroca Mule
Our take on the Moscow Mule, served in a copper mug to keep it ice-cold: vodka, ginger, lime and a touch of local pomegranate. Refreshing and lively, ideal for warm days on the square.
3. Premium gin & tonic
In a gin-loving city like Granada, the balloon glass is almost a religion. The key is the ice, the tonic and the botanical that pairs with each gin. Ask our team — they'll recommend the perfect match.
4. Espresso Martini
For those who want to keep the party going: vodka, coffee liqueur and freshly pulled espresso. Creamy, full-bodied and with just enough caffeine to stretch the night.
5. Aperol Spritz
The perfect aperitivo in the sun: Aperol, cava and soda with orange. Bubbly and light, it's the afternoon cocktail par excellence.
6. Classic Mojito
White rum, fresh mint, lime and cane sugar. Easy to order, hard to nail. Ours has mint muddled to order.
7. Carmen, our signature cocktail
Reposado tequila, lime and orange blossom with a salt rim. A nod to Andalusia, citrusy and aromatic, found only at Caroca.
Where to drink them
They're all part of our menu at Plaza de Bib-Rambla 12, right in central Granada. We're open every day from 3 pm to 2 am (Fridays and Saturdays until 3 am), so there's plenty of time to find your favourite.
