Hey Charleston, it’s Tatum. 👋

Pay It Forward Charleston recently launched the “Brighter Days Ahead” campaign, an awareness and fundraising campaign that helps support locals in the food + bev industry.

Now through Sept. 25, over 25 bars and restaurants in the Charleston area are serving up special cocktails featuring High Wire Hat Trick Botanical Gin + I had the opportunity to try a handful of them.

My favorites so far are the “Who Says We Cantaloupe?” with cantaloupe, honey, and mint at The Cocktail Club and “The Veranda” with apple, thyme, and lemon at Vintage Lounge.

What’s extra cool about it: A portion of proceeds from each drink will benefit Pay It Forward Charleston’s Emergency Relief Fund to help local food + bev workers in need.

Check out participating bars and restaurants here + ask for the “Brighter Days Ahead” cocktail when you go. Cheers. 🍸
