Welcome to Chicago Green Drinks 2023!
After a revival of Chicago Green Drinks in 2022 for six months (March - September 2022), we will be starting Chicago Green Drinks back up in September of 2023! Last year we met on the last Wednesday of every month in the Loop or Loop-adjacent (downtown), which is the central hub for mass transit. We also met an additional time every month (minimum) in one of Chicago's 77 neighborhoods ("Chicago Green Drinks 77" / "CGD77"), to give people who live there a hyper-local option and people who don't a chance to explore the city. We will be changing the format of Chicago Green Drinks to one where we will be organization-led, meaning if your organization would like to host a Green Drinks event, just contact us!
Our kick-off in-person event was at Cindy's Rooftop in the loop on Wednesday, March 30th, at 6:30pm. In April we went to The Delta in Wicker Park for CGD77, and Cerise Rooftop in the Loop on April 27. In May Chicago Green Drinks 77 went to Lizard's Liquid Lounge in Albany Park, and Utopian Tailgate in Old Town on May 25th. In June we went to Pilsen Yards for CGD77, followed by drinks at the Aba rooftop in the West Loop on June 29th.
