ACC NCR / APABA-DC IHC VIRTUAL INTERNATIONAL DIVERSITY HAPPY HOUR: COCKTAILS AND CULTURE
For In-House Counsel Members Only
Raise your glass to global diversity! We're pleased to invite our in-house members to join the Association of Corporate Counsel National Capital Region (ACC NCR) DEI Leadership Development Committee, ACC NCR AAPI Affinity Group, and APABA-DC for a Virtual International Diversity Happy Hour, where we’ll take a flavorful journey through the art and history of mixology. This interactive experience will feature:
Pre-Mix Cocktails: Celebrate the rich heritage of two iconic cocktails from two different countries (outside the U.S.) with specially curated pre-mix recipes that you can easily create at home. One of our featured cocktails will be the Singapore Sling, chosen to honor the vibrant festivities and cultural traditions of the Lunar New Year which this year falls on January 29, a celebration deeply rooted in many Asian cultures. The other will be the popular Brazilian Caipirinha!
Live Bartender Demonstration: Watch a talented mixologist, Nicholle Pitera, craft the Brazilian Caipirinha from scratch, showcasing expert techniques and sharing insider tips on recreating this refreshing treat at home. (If you’re doing Dry January or don’t drink, not to worry! We’ll give you tips on how to convert these to mocktails!)
Cultural Insights: Our program facilitators will dive into the stories behind these featured cocktails, exploring their origins, and cultural significance, along with a few fun facts about global celebrations like the Lunar New Year.
Get Ready to Mix Along! To make the event even more engaging, if you’d like to join in on the fun, we invite you to purchase a cocktail mixer kit for the featured drinks. You can:
