Cocktail Hour and New Orleans Relief Fund Raiser

I know just about everyone is still reeling over the destruction and chaos happening in New Orleans right now, and it might not be readily apparent what you can do to help. We encourage everyone to give generously to the charity of your choice, but even if you can't donate you still have a chance to help. Help out with relief efforts and raise a toast to the brave people of Louisiana, picking themselves up after the devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina, at the same time with a charity cocktail hour.

On Monday, September 12, the Museum of American Cocktail and Southern Comfort are sponsoring a fund-raising cocktail hour to try to help you. From 5-7 PM in bars all around the country, you can buy Big Easty-inspired cocktails for $10 apiece, and the proceeds will be donated to help relief efforts. Participating cities and states include: Aspen, Boston, Cleveland, Las Vegas, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, D.C.

Please go to the Museum of American Cocktail's site for a full list of participating restaurants and to learn more about the Save New Orleans Cocktail Hour.
