Holy Spirits! Book Launch
Holy Spirits! Charleston Culture Through Cocktails is our debut publication. In the book we take readers on a journey through the City of Charleston, exploring its culture from our unique, urban perspective. We worked so hard to bring this idea to life and we are so excited to share it with all of you.
To celebrate this monumental occasion, we mixed up craft cocktails directly from our book, Holy Spirits! We also signed copies of our book as a special thank you to our supporters.
Pancito & Lefty provided a great setting and delicious food for people to mingle and enjoy the craft cocktails.
Attendees had a great time playing with our special ring light for awesome social media photos.
The most popular cocktails of the night were:
Gentle Lady Gimlet with Bristow Gin, fresh lime juice, and Alley 26 Tonic
Peninsula Tea with Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka, fresh lemon juice, ginger honey syrup, and ginger ale
Blacker the Berry with Milagro Tequila, Montelobos Mezcal, blackberry puree, and lime juice
Learn to make these cocktails and more in our book! We appreciate everyone who came out to celebrate with us and kick off our book tour.

Charleston Blog Society Meetup
Charleston bloggers of all genres met for a monthly gathering at Elizabeth Stuart Design. The interior design firm located in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina was the picture perfect backdrop for photo happy bloggers. We hosted a Moet Imperial Ice Champagne bar, courtesy of Moet & Chandon.
The guest were able to choose their own garnishes of pineapple, mint, thyme, lime, lemons and blackberries. Lemon agave syrup made with premium agave syrup from iidea Company added mild sweetness to the slightly dry champagne specially designed to be served over ice.
The agave syrup is made from the leftover mash used to distill tequila. We also heard encouraging words for Elizabeth Stuart herself. She advised that as bloggers we stay true to our message and our brand as it is easy to fall victim to conformity. It was a pleasure being around other bloggers. The group of ladies included wedding bloggers, fashion and make-up writers. All adding their unique perspective to the blogging experience.
