We consider the espresso martini to be an exceptional cocktail – so it’s no surprise that we can’t wait to spend a whole week celebrating one of our favorite drinks. From September 29 to October 5, Mr Black Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur is bringing Espresso Martini Fest back to LA. Consider this your official invitation to a week of ritual meeting revelry for everyone’s favorite coffee-inspired cocktail.

The celebrations are spread throughout LA, so you’re sure to find something happening at a venue near you – we recommend spending the week exploring the participating bars to really take advantage of the offerings. Each bar will bring something different to the festival, but wherever you go, you’re guaranteed the irresistible taste of Mr Black, made with real coffee and cold brewed for that complex flavor and smooth finish. This is shaping up to be a dedicated week of coffee cocktail exploration.
