All this and more at your favorite Olathe liquor store in July

On July 3, 2000, the world changed forever. Or at least Olathe. Or at least one little building at one little intersection in Olathe. That’s the day Brown Bag Liquor first opened its doors, and we’ve served the Olathe community proudly ever since. This year is a special year, because it’s the year we turn 21. That’s right, the sweet little Brown Bag from down the road is finally old enough to drink. They grow up so fast, don’t they? We’re throwing a little birthday party to celebrate, and you’re invited. Stop by on Saturday, July 3, for a liquor store birthday bash unlike any other. We’ll be giving away lots of fun prizes, like pop-up tents, coolers and other swag. Enter our raffles in-store for your chance to win, and stick around for some other birthday fun (hint: it’s cupcakes). We can’t wait to celebrate with you! And if that’s not enough, here’s what else we’ve got going on in July… 

Fourth of July Canned Cocktails

July 4 was a little muted last year for obvious reasons, but this year is going to be a crazy one. Whether you’re hanging in your cul-de-sac or hightailing it to a lake, you’re going to want to make sure you and your friends are stocked up with all the latest canned cocktail favorites. High Noon, Mule 2.0 and Boulevard Fling Craft Cocktails should all be staples in your canned cocktail rotation by now, but here’s a few more names to add to your list: 

Bacardi Mojito

Austin Cocktails Sparkling Mojito, Sparkling Ruby Red and Sparkling Margarita

Coco Vodka, Coco Lime, Coco Rum

Dogfish Head  Whiskey Sour, Vodka Soda, Vodka Lemonade

Boozy Freeze Pops 

Canned cocktails are here to stay, and if you’re looking to switch it up from classics like Truly and White Claw, this list is a great place to start. Know what else is going to be big this summer? Two words: boozy popsicles. After a year inside, we’re all ready to tap into our inner kid, and there’s no better way to beat the heat than with icy sweet treats that just so happen to be spiked. If you’re new to the boozy freeze pop game, we recommend Truly Lemonade, Naturdays and KC Wine Vine Coolers as the place to start. Tag us on Instagram @BrownBagLiquor and let us know what you think!
