Parasocial Hour

Parasocial Hour is a free virtual happy hour featuring writing prompts and cocktail lessons. This monthly event will begin with a cocktail tutorial (there will also be a mocktail option for those who don't imbibe) followed by a writing prompt, a break for a refill, and another writing prompt.

Our September cocktail is the classic Tom Collins. Stock up on the cocktail or mocktail ingredients so you're prepared for the event:

Cocktail Ingredients

2 ounces London dry gin

1 ounce fresh lemon juice

3/4 ounce simple syrup

Club soda

Lemon wheel

Maraschino cherry

Mocktail ingredients

Club soda

1 ounce fresh lemon juice

You will also need ice, something to stir with, and a Collins glass (though any glass will do!).
