Hooters’ drink menu includes signature margaritas (Legendary Rita, Perfect 10, Skinny Rita), Long Island Iced Teas, rum and vodka cocktails, bomb shots, wine, a sizable domestic/craft/import beer list, and non-alcoholic options like soda, tea, lemonade, and Red Bull. Menu items, names, and prices vary noticeably by location since Hooters operates through several independent franchise groups.
Hooters built its reputation on wings, but the bar menu does a lot of heavy lifting too. Between tequila-forward margaritas, loaded Long Island Iced Teas, and a beer list that swings from Bud Light to Lagunitas IPA, there’s a drink for pretty much every table. What trips people up and what most “Hooters menu” roundups gloss over is that Hooters isn’t one single, uniform drink menu nationwide. It’s run by multiple franchise groups (Hooters of America corporate locations, plus independently operated groups like Original Hooters and regional Hooters franchise companies), and each one sets its own drink names, recipes, and prices.

Hooters of Florida and Northeast Hooters franchise groups list yet another set of names and recipes (La Habana Mojito, Lemon Squeezy, Jones Beach LIT) with no published pricing either. Always confirm pricing through the location’s own website, app, or by calling ahead.
