Come join your Sister District friends and fellow Democrats on Monday, August 16th for a bartending-mixological treat to raise funds for our 2021 Virginia candidates, Briana Sewell and Joshua Cole!

Donate Here (We're asking for a $25 donation to attend. Even if you can't join us, every dollar helps our candidates!)

Our experienced mixologist-bartender Victor Irias will show how you can make his four favorite cocktails: the Last Word, the Daiquiri, Sangria, and the Kentucky Mule.

Victor grew up in the Washington area and has long been in the hospitality industry, including at Estadio on DC’s 14th Street NW.

Our MC will be Alice Bender, long-time active chapter member.

During the event you’ll be able to take notes as Victor shows you how to make these cocktails or you can make your own as he shows you how. If you wish to do the latter, here’s what you’ll need to make each drink on the spot:

For the Last Word: gin, green chartreuse, maraschino liqueur, lime juice

For the Daiquiri: rum, lime juice, sugar

For Sangria: tequila, white wine, sugar, apple (fruits), spices

For the Kentucky Mule: whiskey, lime, ginger beer, mint

For bar tools, it will be good to have handy a cocktail shaker, a jigger, a bar strainer, a bar spoon, and a knife.

For glassware, a coupe glass, cocktail glass, and wine glass will do the trick.

Those registering for the event will receive copies of Victor’s recipes afterwards.

We hope to see you there!
