Beer isn’t gonna cut it for you on Super Sunday? Get your drink on with these Bears-inspired cocktails.
Lovie Bear, $9.50
Who doesn’t love Coach Lovie Smith? Salute his outstanding season with a mix of Stoli vodka, Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur and Baileys Caramel Cream served at Harry Caray’s Restaurant.

Monsters of the Midway Martini, $7
Here’s to hoping The Bears can channel the winning ways of the ’85 team when they hit the field in Miami. Parlor gives a nod to the team’s popular nickname with a martini made with DiVine Vodka (a new Midwestern estate vodka made from grapes), blue curacao and a splash of grapefruit juice, all topped off with an orange twist. 1745 W. North Ave. 773-782-9000.
The Chicago Bear, $12
He may have equivocated when it came to picking sides in the NFC Championship, but we’ll forgive Da Coach since he shuffled his’ 85 team to the Super Bowl. Relive the glory days at Mike Ditka’s and hope for another big win while sipping a cocktail of Stoli Blueberi, blue curacao, triple sec and sour mix with a splash of Chambord. 100 E. Chestnut St. 312-587-8989.
