Summer drinking season and the FIFA World Cup arrive at the same time this year, and Philly bars are the best place to enjoy both. With six matches coming to Lincoln Financial Field over the next month, the city is gearing up for a summer of fútbol unlike anything it's seen before. el Jimador Tequila has partnered with some of the best bars in town to make sure you're raising a glass in style when the whistle blows.

From a rooftop on Broad Street to a corner cantina in Port Richmond, here are six spots to pull up a seat with an el Jimador cocktail in hand for Mexico vs. South Africa, this Thursday June 11th.

Nemi Mexican Restaurant and Bar
A beloved corner cantina in Port Richmond, Nemi specializes in modern Mexican fare, handmade tortillas, and world-class cocktails. Start the World Cup strong with their Poloma Tequilera made with el Jimador Silver tequila, Jarritos grapefruit and fresh lime juice served in an icy Collins glass with a tajín rim.

Love City Brewing
If beer is more your thing, head to Love City Brewing to crack open a Lagerita. A can of Love City Lager is rimmed in salt and spiked with an ounce of tequila and a splash of lime. It’s the perfect summer refresher to sip while you root for your team.

Little Gay Pub
What better place to celebrate the start of the World Cup during Pride Month than hitting the Gayborhood for a Big Gay Margarita made with el Jimador? Nestled on 13th Street, the Little Gay Pub has a big personality with eclectic queer art on the every wall, a flower-filled rooftop, and a welcoming atmosphere keep the party going well into the evening.

Tamalex Restaurant Bar and Grill
A family-run gem rooted in Poblano tradition, Tamalex Bar & Grill brings authentic Mexican cooking and a serious tequila program to Society Hill. Celebrate the opening match of the World Cup at their block party and toast the occasion with their classic margarita or the floral, fruit-forward Hibiscus Margarita made with el Jimador. The watch party is from noon to 7 PM and includes live music, drink specials, and of course the game on the big screen.

48 Record Bar
Tucked above Sassafras on the second floor, 48 Record Bar is a vinyl listening room and craft cocktail lounge inspired by the audiophile bars of Tokyo. The mood is intimate, the records are impeccable, and the Café 48 is your new go-to game day pick-me-up: el Jimador Reposado, Caffè Borghetti Espresso, Licor 43, and Café du Monde concentrate.
48 S. 2nd St.

Attico
For the best seat in the house, head 16 floors up to Attico, the rooftop bar and restaurant perched atop the Cambria Hotel on Broad Street. With sweeping views of the Center City skyline and a globally-inspired cocktail menu, it's the most elevated way (literally) to watch the World Cup unfold. Order the Frozen Lemon Drop with el Jimador Silver, lemon, triple sec, and limoncello with the flavor of your choice–passionfruit, strawberry, peach, guava, raspberry, or, of course, spicy.
