It is insane how fast life passes by, but we still have three more weekends until 2000 f#cking 12 is upon us. Do not waste these precious weekends making the same old mix drinks. It is the holidays; act like it is.
Annie Angell and LMC are two of the coolest people/ladies/bartenders/robot lovers in Portland. Thankfully they know what is up when it comes to making a winter cocktail.
We’re honored to get some advice from these two. Follow them on Twitter @itsLMC and @AnnieAngell, make these drinks, and smile.
