As CultureMap has previously reported, the governor signed a waiver allowing restaurants to sell beer, wine, and mixed drinks for both to-go and delivery - providing that the drinks are served with food and met certain packaging requirements.
Restaurants had been allowed to sell alcoholic beverages through a delivery service beginning in 2019. Abbott's waiver allowed consumers to pick up their drinks without utilizing a third party, expanded which establishments could offer them, and allowed for pre-mixed cocktails.
