    The calendar says that fall is almost here, but yo The calendar says that fall is almost here, but you can keep the “Endless Summer” going with the Angeleno Spritz from @venturaspirits! Inspired by the Aperol Spritz, this RTD cocktail with a SoCal vibe is a lighter, brighter take on the Italian classic. 🍊🍋🍾 @conspiritor.us says: “With the citrus burst of @amaroangeleno as its base, brightened up with soda water and a hint of grapefruit, this sparkling canned cocktail is an incredibly easy-drinking option for a sunny day outdoors.” 🌞 😎 🏖 The Angeleno Spritz is available in 6-packs (x 200ml / 7.5% ABV) via the Ventura Spirits website, and at select retail stores like @barkeepersilverlake and @hiloliquor. Cheers! #thirstyinla #angelenospritz #venturaspirits

    @kingcocktl dedicates “The New Craft of the Cock @kingcocktl dedicates “The New Craft of the Cocktail” to the late, great @gazregan, who “taught the cocktailian community to change the world for the better, one customer at a time.” 🙏 In addition to 100 all-new cocktail recipes, the major update of this seminal cocktail book includes Dale’s recommendations for ingredients throughout the 500 recipes - many of these products didn’t exist when “The Craft of the Cocktail” was first published in 2002. Case in point is the Negroni recipe - a mix of classic and modern: 1 oz each of @campariusa, @martini sweet vermouth, and @fordsgin. “The New Craft of the Cocktail” will be published by @clarksonpotter on Sept. 22. Happy #negroniweek everyone! #thirstyinla
