Thereβs something magical about the first warm day in New York City. People emerge from hibernation, shed their puffers, and suddenly every sidewalk cafΓ© is packed like itβs Paris in July and every grassy patch is covered in picnic blankets. Soho Diner, nestled beneath the Soho Grand Hotel, has embraced this golden-hour with the seasonal reopening of the iconic outdoor garden, and let me tell you: itβs worth the reservation.
The perfect Mingle Mocktails to sip on in your new comfy DreamKnit Vuori set.
What better way to kick off Dry January than with mocktails and manicures? Mingle Mocktails and GLOSSLAB graciously extended an invite to a girls’ night out and treated us to bothβlucky us!
The founder of Mingle Mocktails, Laura Taylor, was mingling among the guests for a Dry January event, which allowed guests to try each of the lineup of the beverage’s flavors. With a drink in hand, guests were also treated to a complimentary manicure.
(I picked the perfect shade to match my beveraginoβMingle Mocktail’s “Cranberry Cosmo!”)
My nails dried insanely fastβwhich made it infinitely harder to keep myself from indulging in the spread laid out for the evening. In addition to a charcuterie board and finger desserts from Eataly, the food also included the cutest “cakes-in-a-jar” from Andie’s Eats, a local bakery in NYC.
(I snuck a jar of the S’mores cake in my swag bagβno regrets everyone!)
I was honestly impressed with Mingle Mocktailsβespecially after trying so many soda alternatives over the past year. “Blood Orange Elderflower Mimosa” was my favorite, with “Cranberry Cosmo” coming in at a hard second.
You can find Mingle Mocktails at Whole Foods and several grocers across NYC via their store locator HERE. You can also find GLOSSLAB locations citywide for the fastest manicure in New York!
