In honor of National Happy Hour Day, Melissa Libs from Vino Mobile Bar shares her expertise on creating easy and enjoyable happy hour experiences with wine-based cocktails. Libs explains that wine-based drinks have gained popularity due to their flexibility and appeal, especially as they align with various liquor regulations across the country. “There are quite a few wine-based products now that are crafted to resemble traditional cocktails,” she says, highlighting a chocolate wine cocktail she dubs the “chocolate martini.” This cocktail is versatile and can even be added to coffee or poured over ice cream.

Libs also presents her mobile bar’s wine-based margarita, which has the classic margarita flavor without the strong punch from traditional liquor. “It tastes like the real thing, and it’s smooth,” she notes, offering a refreshing option for margarita fans and skeptics alike.

In addition to creative cocktails, Vino Mobile Bar offers standard wine and beer options for those seeking a classic glass. Libs rounds out her display with a seasonal pumpkin martini, made with a hint of vodka. “It’s perfect for fall,” she says, offering a festive alternative that balances the autumn flavors.

Libs’s mobile bar concept is designed to simplify hosting, allowing hosts to focus on their guests rather than on drink preparation. Her setup, which includes décor and a curated drink menu, brings a sense of ease and professionalism to any event.
