Park Circle Kick Back: Vibes
The Kick Back was a vibe. We gathered an eclectic mixture of artists, grad students and creatives for a evening of musical enjoyment complimented by Patron Tequila cocktails and expertly fried chicken, courtesy of Hannibal’s Kitchen.
Dj Dope D not only played a smooth mixture of hip hop and soul tunes but he also supported artist Nino Casanova as he performed an assortment of original music.
Guest enjoyed the show from any of the comfortable couches or either of the two illuminated swings located inside Park Circle Creative.
We also served our signature ‘Peninsula Tea’ cocktail featuring Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka and Reed’s Ginger Beer alongside ice cold Island Coastal Lager.

Rooftop Meetup: Views
A penthouse definitely has its advantages. We invited a select group of friends and media to join us for cocktails and snacks on one of the best rooftops in Charleston, Hotel Bella Grace.
The boutique hotel located on Calhoun Street not only has a beautiful view of the Ravenel Bridge but sits right across from the iconic Mother Emanuel AME church.
The weather was better than expected for early March which encouraged guest to slowly sip cocktails and munch on hors d’oeuvres from Hamby catering.
We offered two cocktails to compliment the bites and the occasion. The ‘Downtown Shuffle’ featured rum and Rivulet Pecan Brandy while the ‘Hidden Garden’ was a mixture of botanical Bristow Gin and Apple Spiced Rum – recipes below:

1.5 oz of Rivulet Pecan Brandy
