I recently partnered with Blue Bottle Coffee at Union Market to host a Friday morning Coffee Soirée, a sort of caffeinated happy hour. I invited a small group of friends which included a few of my fellow DC social media influencers, DC creatives, writers, bloggers and several small business owners. It was exciting from the start to get everyone together and introduce them to my favorite coffee chain in America. Blue Bottle Coffee Union Market provides an amazing space to share innovative ideas, catch up with each other and make a few new friends. As you may already know, if you’ve been following my blog for a while, I’m all about networking events and helping to connect people to each other. To say it’s a passion would be a bit of an understatement.
As guests arrived, I served the Cascara Fizz (one of my favorite beverages made of cascara syrup, lemon, and soda water). It has an incredibly delicious and refreshing lemon flavor that’s easy to recognize. I wanted everyone to sample something light, summery and an alternative to the plethora of coffee on the menu.
We were treated to an assortment of delicious eats from the menu: avocado toast, short breads, molasses ginger cookies and liege wafels. Everyone was invited to order a full sized beverage of their choice. There are coffees to fit every palette. There’s iced coffees, espressos, lattes, cappuccinos, cold brews, pour overs and so much more to choose from. Whether you’re visiting Blue Bottle Coffee for a quick espresso, picking up a canned cold brew to go, or enjoying the beautiful space for working or networking, Blue Bottle Coffee has arrived in Washington D.C. and I’m so happy to be one of the first influencers to connect with them here!
Thank-you to everyone who came out to support the event and hang out with me! The party was so much fun! Here are a few photos from the event.
I’m planning on hosting another event with Blue Bottle Coffee in October at their new Wharf DC location. If you’d like to be part of the fun, send me an email or hit me up on Instagram by leaving a comment on this post! I’d love to have you join us! Also, follow the hashtag #BlueBottleCoffeeDC to see more behind the scenes photos of this and other events.
