Quarantini Virtual Cocktail Series

HalfSmoke is offering a new Quarantini Virtual Cocktail Series. Virtual cocktail classes will stream live on HalfSmoke’s Instagram account (@halfsmokeDC) on Mondays and Thursdays. These bi-weekly cocktail tutorials will teach viewers everything from tropical-style tiki drinks, to immune boosting libations and aphrodisiac cocktails to spice up the night. Seven local bartenders will share tips, tricks and home-bartending ideas, while demonstrating a series of crafty libations using ingredients most people readily have. Free, but viewers are encouraged to leave a ‘virtual tip’ by sending money to the bartender’s Venmo, Cash App, or Zelle accounts. 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. For more information, please click here.
