Lovehappyhour: Sotto's Spring Cocktails

Bartenders Julian Cox and Nick Meyer have launched a new spring cocktail menu at Sotto in West Los Angeles. And just in time - the weather couldn't be better in LA right now. The restaurant had its kickoff party on Wednesday, March 27th with the new spring cocktails offered at $9 and $9 select pizzas throughout the evening. Thanks to following Caroline on Crack via Twitter, I heard about the event and headed over.

Included in the spring-inspired cocktails line-up, Sotto has also added house-made, bottled carbonated cocktails.
