The perfect place to celebrate this July 4th is the newly renovated POV centrally located the W Washington DC.  For the occasion the popular venue has created The Bipartisan and Yes We Can – two brand new cocktails sure to make you have a blast.

These cocktails seamlessly blend the past with the present, crossing the party lines in true W DC fashion. Where else can you sip the crisp and cool Yes We Can while directly overlooking the White House? Or perhaps reach across the aisle with The Bipartisan, featuring a “blue” and “red” cocktail balancing on a functioning gold scale.

Guests can enjoy these cocktails on the regular menu or at POV’s  Boom with a View celebration on July 4th, featuring an open bar, complimentary food and unparalleled views of fireworks. Tickets can be purchased here and range from $275-$3,400.
