If you’re in town for Superbowl Sunday and want to hit the local bars, here are a few cocktail suggestions locals swear by. Whether you’re catching the game in a bar or have tickets for the show, these choices should be in your itinerary anytime you’re hitting native Tampa Bay spots for good cheers and a good buzz.

Served in a literal bowl, this group drink (yes, avoid finishing one by yourself) packs in a full 64 ounces of “liquid poison,” whose ingredients include Snow Queen vodka, Graves grain alcohol, grape Pucker and soda.
