Starting Friday, you can get a handcrafted cocktail to go with your fresh fruit smoothie at Goodness Fresh Food & Juice Bar's University of Arizona restaurant.

Goodness is opening its full-service bar in the restaurant at 1011 N. Tyndall Ave. in the Hub at Tucson tower.

But lest you think they are throwing in the towel on their fresh and organic ethos, rest assured: the specialty, handcrafted cocktails are all made with organic liquors and fresh pressed juices.

And they sound tasty. A sampling:

• The Dragon, made with Skyy Coconut, fresh pressed orange juice, pineapple and pitaya (dragon fruit).

• Cucumber Water starts with Prairie Organic Vodka and includes Demerara cucumber, lime and soda.

• Skinny Hound has a base of Prairie Organic Gin, the Italian aperitif Aperol, Demerara, grapefruit and soda.

The bar area includes full-service dining, and for those not into cocktails you can order wine or bee, or stick with the house special fresh pressed juices and smoothies. Happy hour is from 3 to 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close daily.

There is a second location of Goodness Fresh Food & Juice Bar at 2502 N. Campbell Ave.
