During the month of July, LALtoday will be celebrating our local beverage industry the best way we know how — through content.

From entrepreneurs to mixologists, unique coffee shops, fascinating local history + happy hour guides, we’ll shine a spotlight on the people and places that make our city’s beverage scene special.
