Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas Celebrates Pride Month with Haute Tea Cocktail at PRESS Lounge

Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas is proud to raise a glass to inclusivity this Pride Month. Featuring Bombay Sapphire Gin, Earl Grey Tea Syrup, and Fever-Tree Tonic Water, the Haute Tea Cocktail by PRESS Lounge honours the multifaceted history of tea in the LGBTQIA+ community.

“Until the mid-1960s, it was illegal for bars to sell alcohol to gay people,” shares AJ Huth, Director of Public Affairs & Civic Engagement, The Center. “Police conducted raids on gay establishments, leading members of the community to organize events where tea was served instead of alcohol.  The Tea Dance was born out of the need to gather in a less law-defying environment.  Respecting the role tea has played in the coming together of our community allows us to honour those who came before us. It is meaningful partners like Four Seasons Las Vegas that provide The Center with a celebratory opportunity to tip our hats to the past, while uplifting our present community members.”

A portion of the sales from every drink sold will benefit The Center, impacting their ongoing efforts to serve as a safe haven for all and to welcome and celebrate the diversity of Southern Nevada by empowering everyone to live their authentic lives.
