Happy Hour, French Style

Happy Hour, French Style

Now in its fourth consecutive year, the “French Cocktail Hour” campaign is back to encourage people around the world to spend some time after work enjoying the diversity of delicious French wines, delectable cocktails and mouth-watering hors-d’oeuvres. Much like Cinco de Mayo, every year “French Cocktail Hour” Day is feted globally (this year in 36 cities, 24 countries) on the first Thursday in June. So come out and be a part of this global movement to enjoy a more sophisticated happy hour, French-style!

“French Cocktail Hour” is produced by the international marketing and communications agency, Sopexa, on behalf of France’s Ministry of Agriculture and the French Government Tourist Office

It’s definitely a press release and not some organic event that’s been created, but I support an event that brings class and cocktails back to the world’s eye.

It’s quite wine heavy (no surpise), but their French Cocktail Hour USA site calls out GREEN CHARTREUSE for their cocktail section, a very under appreciated and wonderful spirit.
