Named after the Yellow Rose of Texas, Emily Morgan, the signature Yellow Rose Martini of the Emily Morgan Hotel features Smirnoff Citrus and Smirnoff Raspberry, as well as Limoncello and simple syrup, with a splash of Razmatazz, and garnished with a cherry in a martini glass. Every Tuesday evening, the Emily Morgan hosts a Tale of Emily Tuesday reception that includes appetizers and a complimentary Yellow Rose Martini. Located in the lobby around the fireplace, General Manager Kole Siefken shares the unique history of this historic hotel.

"The John Knaggs cocktail at the Emily Morgan Hotel is named after John Knaggs, the author of The Bugles are Silent, a bestselling book about the Alamo that was published in 1977. This signature cocktail features fresh lemon, Hendricks Gin, and simple syrup, topped off with soda, and garnished with a lemon wheel in a high ball glass. John can still be found most Saturdays signing autographs at the Alamo, and John and his wife, Helen, are regular guests at the Emily Morgan Hotel, and can be found enjoying food and libations in the lobby bar.
