Drum Roll, Please! We Are Announcing Our Coladka Week Two Winner
Lori P., come on down! Cola-flavored vodka… enough said. Last week, we teamed up with Kevin Barrett and Drew Schenck, the masterminds behind Coladka (and Dram & Draught) to give away a bottle of their “adventure nectar!” We hope you enjoy it, Lori!
And Now… Let’s Pop Some Bubbles
Our boss is feeling quite spirited this week (perhaps it’s the morning mimosas?) so she’s giving us the chance to give away a bottle of bubbles to help you, our lovely readers, kick off the new year.

Killjoy + Maker’s Mark… Name a Better Collaboration
Tuesdays are for the industry. Wednesdays are for the ladies. And Thursdays? Well, they’re for the bourbon lovers at Killjoy! The team at Killjoy thought it would be great to give all of their dedicated bourbon fans out there something special to enjoy when you visit them.
In another collaboration with The Haymaker, Killjoy and Haymaker’s very own Maker’s Mark® Private Select Barrel has recently arrived in Raleigh.
Get Your Margarita To Go
Bars and restaurants in North Carolina can now sell margaritas, martinis, and other mixed drinks to go!
Gov. Roy Cooper announced a new executive order allowing cocktails to-go starting at 5 p.m. Monday, Dec. 21. The measure, Cooper said, offers relief to the ailing restaurant industry, without allowing larger gatherings.
Remember to eat, drink, and shop local this holiday season. They need us now more than ever!
