Free Cocktail on National Cocktail Day
Date: March 24
Time: Noon to 8 p.m.
Cost: Free
Location: The Underground speakeasy and distillery
Description: Cocktails became especially popular after alcohol was prohibited in the United States from 1920 to 1933. Speakeasies began to sell inferior liquor because it was easier to produce illicitly. Then they started adding honey, fruit juice and other flavorings to mask the foul taste of this liquor, enabling customers to drink faster– which was very important in case of a raid. In honor of National Cocktail Day, guests who post a photo of themselves with their Underground specialty cocktail and tag @mobmuseum_underground on Facebook or Instagram will receive that cocktail for free. Special cocktails included in the promotion are The Underground Old Fashioned, Strawberry Bee’s Knees and the Moonshine Mayhem.
This offer is valid one per guest and is available from 12 to 8 p.m. on March 24 at The Underground speakeasy and distillery only. Guests must show post with correct tag to a bartender or server in The Underground for redemption.

ABOUT THE UNDERGROUND
The Underground is an immersive Prohibition history experiential exhibition, featuring a distillery, speakeasy and private VIP room located in the basement of The Mob Museum.

The Underground also brews and serves craft beer onsite. Artifacts from the 1920s and 1930s on display tell the intriguing story of the Prohibition era, which not only saw a proliferation of bootlegged booze and the meteoric growth of organized crime outfits, but also had a profound, lasting impact on society and culture. Complimentary entrance to The Underground is granted at the secret side entrance to visitors who know the correct password, which is published daily on Instagram Stories @MobMuseum_Underground.
