The Sazerac House is no stranger to
celebrations, but even soirée savvies have found
roadblocks in the past months due to the country's health crisis. That said,
The Sazerac House is not letting a lack of physical rendezvous put their
Halloween celebrations six feet under. With their Shrunken Skull event taking place
this October 28 at 5 p.m., they are opening virtual doors for any and all
interested guests for a special cocktail-focused livestream. The eponymous
Shrunken Skull cocktail's creation will be performed step-by-step, and it is
worth noting that the entire event is free of charge.
Take care to remember
that you must sign up using the link HERE if you wish to participate online. Space is
limited to 50 participants, so make it a point to sign up promptly if the event
has piqued your interest. Also of note is their concurrent sale of cocktail-mixing
kits that you may pre-order on their website for pickup during the event. A
respectable 10 percent of any and all proceeds made off of these kits will be
donated to the Louisiana
Hospitality Foundation, so this is a prime opportunity to both quench your
thirst and give back to the community. Keep in mind that the kits cannot
legally be shipped and must be picked up on-site.
While it is unfortunate
that events like these must still be held online, it is a good sign that they continue
to happen at all. Every facet of the hospitality industry has been or is still
in dire straits due to the quarantine, and seeing a member of that industry not
only continue operation but directly donate a sizable chunk of its proceeds is
nothing short of heartwarming. If you have a taste for liquor in the coming
days or want to enjoy a fun livestream, be sure to participate in The Sazerac
House's Shrunken Skull event this October 28.
