From an email:
“While the status of Washington’s beloved summer traditions seems uncertain, Stable is resurrecting a warm weather fan favorite, usually debuted on Memorial Day weekend, a little early. On Saturday, April 11th, Stable will bring back their schnaps-spiked popsicles lovingly known as Schnapsicles for brunch carry out and delivery. Packaged as the flavor ice of your wildest Swiss dreams, guests can enjoy a Schnapsicle for a brunch at home or stock their freezer with the much-needed fun and whimsy these boozy treats deliver (move over boring batched meals).

We are in uncharted waters but we know we need to stay home. I've gotten so many reports of people partying. This is not a drill. We do what we have to do or people will suffer and some will die. There is no nuance. Don't be an asshole. You can do it.
