What’s better than doing your holiday shopping in a market place filled with the best of the region’s indie and handcrafted gift ideas? How about doing it with a cocktail in your hand?
This season, thanks to Detroit Mercantile Company and Pulp Detroit, you can pour your gift-buying stress over ice, shake it up and strain out a tasty drinking and shopping experience.
The free two-day event features over 40 juried vendors. Guests can browse an array of Michigan-made products and artisan brands, as well as vintage and antique items, while enjoying a food-truck nosh and a few signature drinks prepared exclusively by Chas Williams, from Ferndale’s craft-cocktail masters, The Oakland.
The Wild Turkey bourbon bar will be mixing the finest in artisan ingredients, including McClary Bros. drinking vinegars and cold-brewed coffee by White Pine Coffee House.
A share of the proceeds will benefit 826 Michigan, a non-profit organization that provides children’s educational programs.
