The month of June is all about embracing the LGBTQ+ community and celebrating inclusivity, and we are always here for that! Pride Month is right around the corner and we're getting ready.

Our editors have been talking about how even though Pride festivities may look a little different this year, there are still a ton of ways to celebrate and show your support. We're planning some at-home activities to mark the occasion, and we're going back to our old reliable, Drizly, to make sure our bar carts are well-stocked and with some LGBTQ-owned drinks that are perfect for Pride.

If you don't know, Drizlyis a one-stop-shop for all of your alcohol needs! Drizly brings the liquor store to you by allowing you to shop all of your local stores in one convenient place. Oh, and did we mention they deliver it right to your door in under an hour?!

Instead of having to go to multiple locations to find exactly what you're looking for, Drizly allows you to see inventory for all liquor stores in your area, and you can even compare prices to ensure you're getting the best deal possible.

If you're anything like us, you're always scrambling to get things ready at the last minute, and luckily, Drizly deliveries come in under an hour, or, you can schedule up to 2 weeks in advance if you want to prep. We can't wait to make some vibrant cocktails and have fun with friends. While Drizly has just about every type of liquor and brand you could ever want, this year we're going to make an extra effort to support the brands that go the extra mile to stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community.

If Vodka is your thing, why not reach for a bottle of Absolut? Its years-long partnership with GLAAD in support of the work it does to advocate for the LGBTQ+ is just one of the ways they are helping to encourage a more inclusive world. Aboslut also makes a delicious range of canned, ready-to-drink cocktails, so all you have to do is crack one open and enjoy responsibly!

Trying to stay away from spirits? Why not sip on some Barefoot wine! Barefoot was one of the first companies to show their support way back in 1988 when they donated a portion of their proceeds to the Golden Gate Business Association of San Francisco, an organization that champions a number of LGBTQ+ issues. Over the years, they have shown their continued support by releasing limited edition rainbow bottles that resulted in over $60,000 being donated to charity. Nothing tastes sweeter than a glass of wine that serves a higher purpose!

If you're unsure of trying something new, Drizly's website and app have tons of reviews of each product, so you can make the most informed decision. You can even search for LGBTQ-owned drinks!

Drizlyalso offers delivery for snacks, ice, mixers, and various other supplies, making it a one-stop-shop for all of your Pride festivity needs!

This year, you might not be able to go to a parade or see all of the friends you hoped to, but you can still get into the spirit of this truly important celebration. Whether you're on zoom calls or with a small group in person, let's celebrate all things love and inclusivity. Happy Pride!

Celebrate Pride With A Cold One And Get $5 Off!

How do you explore nowadays? We used to go out for drinks with friends trying out the latest cocktails - some winners, some not so much. Either way, it was an adventure and we miss that.

Now that we're not visiting the trendiest spots in town our at-home drink menu has been getting a little stale. It's always the small selection at the corner liquor store and we've really missed the excitement of trying something new.

Lately, we've been wanting to move away from the same old wine and beer, and refresh our at-home cocktail hours. We were looking for a way to stock up without struggling to carry cases home, and prices that didn't break our budgets. That's when we discovered our favorite new service Drizly.

With Drizly you can order in their app or online and have alcohol delivered right to your door in under 60 minutes. Not only convenient, Drizly features a wide selection since you choose from all your local liquor stores in one place. Plus, shopping across multiple stores means you'll get the best price.

We're aware that drinking at home changes the vibe and that's okay! Just because you're not at the bar doesn't mean you can't have fun. There are so many amazing choices!

Here are our top 4 picks from Drizly:

1. Hard Seltzer

Hard seltzers have really become a fan-favorite in recent years and they're perfect for moments at-home. Known for being a great low-calorie choice, they have on average an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 5%. Have a can over dinner after a long day of work, simple and convenient.

You've probably heard of White Claw, and it's for a good reason. At only 100 calories per can, they have a range of flavors including Mango, Black Cherry, Raspberry, and Lemon. Each one delivers a fresh, crisp taste ideal for a casual evening.

Drizly offers White Claw among other brands of hard seltzers so you can find what suits your taste without scouring the city yourself.

2. Hard Kombucha

Kombucha with alcohol? Yes, it's true - this healthy, trendy beverage is another better-for-you alcohol. While you may not find it in your typical liquor store fridge, it's available through Drizly. So, stay home and try something new.

A favorite of ours that we've discovered with Drizly is JuneShine. This drink is 6% ABV, low sugar, probiotic, and gluten-free. Ideal for a small treat at home without going crazy. You'll love their array of flavors including Blood Orange Mint, Acai Berry, and Honey Ginger Lemon.

3. Ready-to-Drink

Nothing takes us back to the good ol' days of nights out with friends than Moscow Mules, Vodka Sodas, and trusty Margaritas (to name a few). However, the effort that goes into homemade cocktails is way too much, especially after a long day.

Who wants to gather the ingredients, learn how to make it, and clean up afterward? Drizly's "ready-to-drink" page brought us an excellent solution: Cutwater. They've taken our favorite indulgences and canned them!

Imagine reaching into your fridge and choosing between ready-made Tequila Margaritas, Gin & Tonics, White Russians, Rum Mint Mojitos, and Whiskey Highballs. Cutwater has it all and, thanks to Drizly, so can you.

4. Frozen Cocktails

As the weather warms up, we can't stop thinking of those summer cocktails we love. Unfortunately, a frozen anything just feels like too much work at home - blender, ice, ingredients, not to mention cleaning it all up after.

Thankfully, Drizly takes care of this too and brings frozen drinks to us. Try out Daily's and get 10oz pouches of your favorite frozens like Mai Tais, Piña Coladas, Margaritas, and Half & Halfs. They taste great and you definitely won't miss the hassle of blending them yourself.

Wanting to try something even newer? Check out Claffey's Frozen Cocktails, spiked pops! They're a fun, whimsical way to enjoy a cocktail at home in popsicle form. Try a Punk Lemonade, Modern Mango, and Cherry Lips all in their variety pack available at Drizly.

We've been loving that Drizlydelivers fun ready-to-drink options to our door and at the best prices. We have just as many, if not more, options at home than the local bar.

Drizly's selection of ready-mades is killing it for us right now. But we can always use Drizly to order the classics like beer, wine, and other liquor. On top of that, they deliver extras like mixers, cups, ice, and snacks. You want it, they've got it.

Stop missing the bar and bring the bar home to you with Drizly.

What's the Right Scotch for You?

Are you a Ron Burgundy or Ron Swanson kind of scotch drinker?

Giphy

Every day is a good day to enjoy scotch.

But July 27, National Scotch Day, is the best day to celebrate scotch and the weird, surly misanthropes who love it. As the five time Emmy Award-winning anchor of Channel 4 News, Ron Burgundy, says, "I love scotch. Scotchy scotch-scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly."
