Our good friend Leslie Wilke celebrated her 70th birthday and we were on point for the online virtual gathering of her family and friends. It came off well. Many attending built Leslie's Sunrise cocktails, a libation I prepared for her previously and resprised on this auspicious day. Another cocktail made for virtual happy hours with the CoWW and family is the Rum Quarantini - a mule variant also shown below.
