Nothing says summer like a gimlet, fizz or martini! Tired of serving these same gin drinks during the warmer months? Join the BCA and Traveling Foodie in 4'" Stilettos and learn more about the different types of this aromatic spirit (and how to use them to create your own cocktails). For example did you know that gin was invented by an early 17th century Dutch doctor? This month’s guest Sahil Mehta, bartender at Estragon Tapas Bar leads a fun evening of drinking gin cocktails, enjoying Spanish snacks from Estragon and learning more about this great liquor!
