Cultural Curiosities & Cocktails

Our Mission:

To unite book lovers and cocktail enthusiasts in a monthly gathering that celebrates the rich tapestry of global cultures through literature. Each month, we delve into a book that offers insights into different cultural perspectives, opening a window to the beliefs, traditions, struggles, and triumphs of people around the world. Our discussions aim to deepen understanding, foster empathy, and broaden our worldviews, all within a friendly, relaxed atmosphere enriched by thematic cocktails that pay homage to the setting or essence of the book.

How It Works:

• Monthly Selections: Each month, "Cultural Curiosities & Cocktails" chooses a book that offers rich cultural insights, compelling narratives, and the opportunity for lively discussion. Our selections will span continents and genres, including both contemporary works and timeless classics.
• Cocktail Pairing: To complement our reading, a specially curated cocktail (or mocktail) inspired by the book's cultural setting or themes will be introduced. Whether it's a Japanese sake-based cocktail to accompany a novel set in Tokyo or a pisco sour for a literary journey to the Andes, each drink is designed to enhance our immersion into the book's world.
• Meet and Discuss: We convene once a month in a cozy, welcoming space to share our thoughts, insights, and reflections on the book. Discussions are informal and open, inviting all members to contribute their perspectives. It's a time for lively debate, laughter, learning, and, of course, enjoying our thematic cocktails.
• Cultural Exchange: Beyond discussions, we occasionally invite guest speakers, such as authors, cultural experts, or mixologists, to enrich our gatherings with their knowledge and experiences. These special events offer deeper dives into the cultures we explore and the art of cocktail-making.
