On hot July days, it doesn’t take much convincing to raise a glass of something cold and refreshing, but here are just a few unique things to toast this month when you raise your next glass.
One year ago, The Rickey was named the official drink of D.C. and July became Rickey Month in the District. DC’s Craft Bartenders Guild is hosting a Rickey Month competition with 35 participating bartenders and a party on August 5. Click here for more details and to print your Rickey passport.
