It’s Women’s History Month!

In honor of Women’s History Month, we’ve put together a SoCal cheat sheet of some of the Women’s History Month Celebrations around SoCal for you to explore. Cheers!

HAPPY HOUR!

Alcove Cafe’s Big Bar in Los Angeles is hosting happy hours throughout the month that honor women-owned brands. Each week features a rotating list of cocktails that use spirits owned by women, or have a female master distiller on staff. Big Bar is also hosting a female bartender night on March 13 from 6-9 pm, in which the women-identifying members on staff will mix drinks that were created in honor of those who inspire them. Guest mixologist Ash Miyazaki (Let’s Go Disco) will also be behind the bar that night, serving up a cocktail utilizing Los Vecinos Mezcal. To learn more about each week’s featured happy hour brands and their makers, follow the action on their Instagram.
