Date Night To Go from Bluewater Organic Distilling
When stay home directives were issued in Washington, Bluewater Organic Distilling was uniquely ready to pivot to takeout. Because they already sold their own bottles, they could immediately sell cocktail kits with their spirits and fresh batches of craft mixers. Currently they're open 3-7 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday for takeout only, so I thought I'd get in touch with them and see what's on the menu for a perfect date night to go.

Of course the challenge with upscale takeout is transferring to your own plates. See how well you can replicate the gorgeous photos you can always find on Bluewater's Instagram.

Ask them about weekend specials and desserts which aren't listed on the menu. That day's dessert was a very delicious-looking strawberry-rhubarb tart.

Takeout orders take about 20 minutes to prepare. With Stay Home, Stay Healthy directives in place at the marina, you may not be able to sit and relax by the water, but you can definitely take a scenic stroll to Boxcar Park and back.

If you just want a couple of drinks with your meal rather than a full-bottle cocktail kit, you can get two premade cocktails in a jar over ice. Or you can stock up on bottles of spirits and bitters for your home bar. Either way, with Bluewater's help you're set for a great date night at home.
