Cheers to Chicas
What: Toast to Women's History Month at Nido, an Oakland restaurant that's launched a special celebratory drinks menu in collaboration with Mujeres Unidas y Activas (MUA). Each cocktail is inspired by a different Latina icon, including author Isabelle Allende and Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree Dolores Huerta. We can't think of a better way to fete Latina ladies than with shots of tequila and mezcal. Salud!
