The Tequila Sunrise by Boat: Sipping History by the Bay

 

Join us to explore the story behind one of the Bay Area's most famous (notorious) cocktail creations. The Tequila Sunrise was created in 1972 for the Rolling Stones,  you know Mick, Keith, Charlie, and Ronnie.

Our adventure will begin at 12:30pm on Saturday, July 12. The Society will gather at the historic Eagle Café (Pier 39). We'll discuss the incredible story of this former Longshoreman’s bar and Alcatrooper hangout. It’s pretty posh now.

After a sip and maybe a nosh, we’ll make the short stroll down to Pier 41 for the Blue & Gold Fleet’s Sausalito ferry and board the 1:45pm boat.

Enjoy the relaxing 30-minute cruise past Alcatraz and across the Bay. It’s an easy walk from the pier to the Trident, birthplace of the Sunrise.

Relive some  cocktail and Rock & Roll history before catching  the 4:15 ferry back to the City. From there we can stumble around in search of dinner or say “adieu” if you’re heading home.
