Big news from the governor's office for bars and restaurants looking to sell mixed drinks to-go.
Now that bars are once again shut down and restaurants are about to be scaled back to 50 percent, the governor Saturday approved a new waiver aimed at helping their revenue stream.
The waiver lets restaurants and some bars offer alcohol pickup and delivery.
To qualify, they have to have a Mixed Beverage Permit as well as permanent food service capabilities. The alcohol order must also come with a food order.
Under the waiver, the drinks must be mixed on-site, sealed with tape that says the establishment's name and that there's alcohol in the container, then placed in a bag that is closed with a zip-tie.
