Session has created an exclusive cocktail creation, "The Sweetheart," for their May “Cocktail for a Cause” to help support the Heart Gallery Alabama. According to the press release, “Session raises money by creating one specialty cocktail per month, the cocktail for a cause, in which proceeds are donated back to the community.”

Throughout May, patrons of Session have the unique privilege to savor their exclusive cocktail with a twist of philanthropy. Each purchase directly benefits Heart Gallery Alabama, offering the dual satisfaction of delighting taste buds and supporting Alabama's foster care youth.

Be sure to visit Session in May and order "The Sweetheart," which is a “cocktail that represents a step towards brighter futures for children in need,” said Heart Gallery Alabama. “The Sweetheart” cocktail is made with vodka, grenadine, lime, and orange liqueur,” said Session.

“Together, we can make a difference, one drink at a time.”

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery.
