WEST TOWN — Is your home bar running low on supplies?
You can support your neighborhood bars and restaurants by ordering booze for pickup and delivery.
Cocktail kits
The Violet Hour: This award-winning Wicker Park cocktail lounge is selling $100 “TVH Stirred Kits,” which include enough fixings and supplies to create several Old Fashioneds or the bar’s own “Juliet & Romeo” gin cocktails. The kits are available for pre-order online. Pick up noon-4 p.m. at Big Star, 1531 N. Damen Ave.
Club Lucky: The Bucktown Italian restaurant and cocktail lounge is packaging fixings for “Quarantinis.” For $30 — and with the purchase of a food item — you can order a liter bottle of Club Lucky’s signature vodka and a carton of homemade blue cheese stuffed olives or pickled Gibson onions. $10 goes directly to Club Lucky staff.
