The Hotel Monaco's Jackson 20 restaurant in Old Town is making it easy for guests to join the fight against AIDS and HIV with “Cocktails for a Cure.”  

As part of Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants’ annual Red Ribbon Campaign, guests and diners can feel good about indulging in spirits this holiday season with themed cocktails created by master mixologist Jacques Bezuidenhout.  For every “Cocktails for a Cure” purchase at a Kimpton restaurant during the months of November and December, $1 will be donated to local AIDS/HIV charities.

Available at all Kimpton restaurants, cocktails that fight the fight are $12 each and include:

• Rouge on the Rocks – Milagro Blanco Tequila, Grand Marnier, raspberries and mint

• Scarlet Night – Bacardi Rum, Campari and white peach puree

• Ruby Sparkle – Grey Goose Vodka, Grand Marnier, pomegranate juice and sparkling wine
  

“At Kimpton, we share in the passionate fight to find a cure for HIV and AIDS,” said Niki Leondakis, Chief Operating Officer, Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants.  “By hosting fun events and creating unique promotions that engage our guests and employees, we are able to maximize our contribution and help spread awareness about this important cause.”

Kimpton’s “Cocktails for a Cure” promotion is part of an annual Red Ribbon campaign.  For more than two decades, Kimpton has assisted HIV and AIDS service organizations across North America through employee volunteerism, educational campaigns, corporate donations, and raising funds through special events.
