Black History Month: Recap from the R.R. Bowie Cocktail Competition
We were so thrilled to be a co-sponsor with @greygoose for the @dmvbrw R.R. Bowie Cocktail Competition held in November of 2018. So impressed with the creativity of the African-American mixologists: @alluringcocktails @mixinmimi @lpdrinks @p_low_green and @lord.greene
Thank you to all of the contestants for helping the BlueHenry products shine! Great job putting this together AJ (@whiteplatesblackfaces)! And special congrats to the people’s choice winner: Mixinmimi and the judge’s winner: @laurenpaylor_ who crafted a punch titled – “Fruits of our Labor’. Not only were their cocktails delicious but they had inspiring stories behind them related to heritage and legacy. Can’t wait to see what’s in store this year for DMV black restaurant, so check out @dmvbrw for details on participating restaurants.
