Many public relations firms will celebrate the end of the week by attending a happy hour at a nearby pub or craft cocktail establishment. Some even have their own bar carts in-office. At Duffey, we thought, “why not make our own PR-inspired cocktails?” After lots of trial and error and enough terrible puns to last a lifetime, here we are. Here’s our list of five PR and marketing-inspired cocktails. Cheers!
