Margarita Monday – Chocolate

Posted on Updated on

With Drinko de Mayo coming up, we’re working on margaritas at home. Last week we tried an avocado one. This week we’re going with chocolate.

Below is the recipe I used to make around 3 to 4 drinksChocolate

  • 1/2 cup chocolate syrup, plus more for the glasses
  • 1 cup tequila
  • 1/2 cup chocolate flavor liquor
  • 1/3 cup Triple Sec
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Splash of lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon of chili powder
  • ice

A fund, Heroes of Beacon Street Fire, has been set up to assist the families of the two heroes who lost their lives. The funds raised here will be to assist the injured who remain in the hospital. Some have a very long recovery ahead. Drinko de Mayo is over a month away but we felt it was very important to contribute. Proceeds from the ticket sales will go to this important and amazing fund raiser. We aim to crush their $5,000 goal.

Alpha In Boston is our alphabet based happy hour / bar crawl. More info here on that.  Next up is Granary Tavern this Wednesday.

The Pirate Crawl takes place on 6/14/13. Tickets for this are also on sale now. We still have a ways to go but have already sold over 50%.

Margarita Monday – Avocado

Posted on

Drinko de Mayo is our next official crawl. So I’ve got margaritas on my mind.

I took a try at making an avocado margarita. What could go wrong with a mix of tequila and omega-3 fatty acids?

Below is the recipe I used to make around 4 drinksavocado 1

– 2 cups crushed ice
– 6 oz. tequila
– 4 avocados, peeled, sliced, and pitted
– 2 oz. triple sec
– 5 oz. lime juice
– salt on your glass (optional)

It came out pretty well. I used way more avacodo than the original recipe called for so it was nice and thick.

Valentine’s Crawl Registration Info

Posted on Updated on

We can’t wait to see you on Saturday for the Valentine’s Crawl. We’re down to our last handful of tickets.

Our 2014 Staff Shirts
Our 2014 Staff Shirts

We have a few points of order to help make the day as smooth as possible:

Registration opens at 12:00 sharp and ends at 3:00.

You will need to bring either a printed Eventbrite ticket or show the app on your phone. If you don’t have a paper ticket or the phone app, you can use your ID to pick up your ticket.. Please be ready when you get to the top of the line. We’ll be checking in hundreds of you and nobody wants to be stuck behind the person who doesn’t have any of their stuff ready.

Registration will be by LAST NAME

“A – K” – Paddy O’s – 33 Union Street

“L – Z” – Kinsale – 2 Center Plaza

We will have about 20 total tickets available for day of sales for $30 which will include the $3 or less drink option at each bar, L.E.D. Flashing Silk Rose, Candy Necklace, Koozie, Drawstring Backpack, Heart Shaped Stress Ball, Mini Heart Noise Drum and Photo Booth. These are on a first come, first serve basis. EXACT CHANGE ONLY. They can be purchased at either of the scheduled registration bars.

Bar schedule:

You will receive the entire schedule when you register. We have 10 bars total. All the bars will be in the Faneuil Hall and Financial District areas. We are not releasing the schedule prior to the crawl to avoid crawl crashers (we’ve already seen the Facebook and Twitter posts). We want to keep this event as exclusive as possible for your own comfort. Please note, the bars have the right to refuse entry to anyone due to bar capacity or personal incapacity.

CASH IS KING

I know that bringing your card might be easy. But when tons of people are trying to order drinks, it takes a lot more time to open and close a tab than to pay with cash. Plus you’d be surprised about how many people forget to close their tabs at the end of the night and leave for home without their credit cards.

Remember to drink responsibly.mardigrashat

Neon Crawl Registration Info

Posted on Updated on

The Neon Light, Bright and Tight Bar Crawl is just a few days away. We’re very much looking forward to seeing what type of fantastic outfits that you were able to come up with.

We have a few quick points of order:

Registration opens at 12:00 sharp and ends at 3:00. If you didn’t get your electronic ticket, check your spam folder or sign into your EventBrite account to find it there.

We will be checking in people electronically. You will need to bring either a printed Eventbrite ticket, or show the app on your phone.  If you don’t have a paper ticket or the phone app, you can use your ID to pick up your ticket.

IMG_5451Once you register you will get a special wristband along with your giveaways. We just picked up some crazy straws. I bought all they had in the store but it was only 30. That said, first 30 people who register will get one as a bonus. I wish we had enough for everyone.

The first 3 bars will be

12:00 – 12:50  – Paddy O’s – 33 Union Street

1:00 – 1:45 – Hennessy’s – 25 Union Street

1:45 – 3:00 – Sissy K’s – 4 Commercial Street

Once again, you must register by 3:00. We will be putting our extra items into storage so we won’t have to haul it around all day.

We will have about 20 total tickets available for day of sales for $25. These are on a first come, first serve basis. EXACT CHANGE ONLY. They’ll include everything minus the koozies.

Bar schedule:

You will receive the entire schedule when you register. We have 10 total bars participating. All the bars will be in the Faneuil Hall and Financial District areas. We will give you the rest of the schedule upon check in. We want to keep this event as exclusive as possible for your own comfort. Please note, the bars have the right to refuse entry to anyone due to bar capacity or personal incapacity.

The bar schedule is a little windy this time around but we had to work around a few conflicts, so make sure you pay attention to the schedule.

We have 350+ attending. And it’s hard to find bars in Boston with that type of capacity. So please be patient with us. The bars know we’re coming and have a pretty open window for us. So feel free to head to a bar a little early or a little late if the current bar is at capacity (except Howl at the Moon which doesn’t open until 4:30)

Remember to drink responsibly. We strongly encourage the use of public transportation/cabs/Uber/Hailo etc.

Have a great time on Saturday!

Halloween Crawl. Tickets going VERY quickly
