Malo has created a special drink for this weekend's festival called the Sunset Junction Margarita ($8). Made out of El Jimador, Cointreau, a simple syrup and lime juice, it's got a quite a nice spritzy and refreshing kick to it and soothes your quench for thirst (and alcohol) easily. Additionaly, they have some very good specialty cocktails).
They're also serving mojitos, red & white sangria, and frozen margaritas in addition to their full menu bar and food options throughout the weekend.
Dewar's, who are a constant alcohol sponsor at events in Los Angeles, are offering $5 drinks (Dewars + lemonade, ginger, 12 year or coke) at the bar.
