Tanqueray Petersen Museum Directions to the Bar
TanquerayAbout the Drink

We know we normally do $4 drinks, but how does free sound? This Wednesday the 25th, we are doing a special event. Take a trip back to the classic, the company that invented the gin and tonic (don't ask us for proof of that fact), TANQUERAY. Free Tanqueray & Tonics will be flowing along with light hors d'oeuvres. And it's at a fantastic location...The rooftop of the Petersen Automotive Museum. If you've never been, do yourself a favor and come see this space. Tanqueray's global brand ambassador, Angus Winchester, will be on hand to talk about gin and host some of the top bartenders in LA as they craft their own take on the T&T. A tasting panel will then pick the best "Twist on the T&T" and you will be the first to try this brand new mixology cocktail.
