Favorite Cocktails
Birmingham is bubbling over with unique cocktail concoctions and we asked several of our past FACES of Birmingham to share their poison passions.
Now that the weather is getting nicer, itβs a great time to get out of the house and meet up for cocktails! For inspiration, we asked several of our past FACES of Birmingham to weigh in on their favorite cocktails around town.
