Should Arizona bars and restaurants be allowed to sell alcohol to take home or for delivery in the aftermath of COVID-19?
Do you enjoy having a well mixed adult beverage every now and then? Many people do; and now you can order one directly to your doorstep from any willing to deliver establishment in Arizona! Due to covid-19 Arizona residents can now order and pick up adult beverages from any bar or restaurant, and it looks like the law might be here to stay. Let’s talk about whether or not this is a good idea.
Let’s start with the bad. Obviously this opens up a lot of issues with drinking in public and drinking and driving, since you can pick up drinks to take home. Having an open alcoholic beverage is illegal to have in a vehicle in Arizona. So unless you live right next to a bar, an alcohol pickup wouldn’t really work if you care about your criminal record.
Now for the good! Have you ever tried mixing a white Russian at home? Even with perfect ingredients it’s not an easy task. However a bar mixer can usually get it just right, and having the option to get one delivered to your doorstep is quite the privilege!
