The Mediterranean Table | Ritual, Presence, Community, & Mental Health Awareness

​🌊 30 SEATS ONLY | Reserve now.

​May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and tonight, The Intoxicologist's Table is exploring the Mediterranean traditions that understood something we are only now rediscovering: mental wellness is not just individual therapy. It is ritual, presence, and community.

​Join ChinaMoon for an evening honoring Lebanese arak tables that last for hours because rushing the conversation misses the point. Moroccan tea ceremonies, where pouring from a height and serving three rounds is an act of care, not just hospitality. Turkish raki gatherings called "raki sofrası" where the table becomes a sacred space, and being present with each other is the entire purpose.

​These cultures built mental health practices into their drinking traditions centuries before we had language for mindfulness or community care.

​💧You will taste Lebanese arak with pomegranate and watch the louche effect—that milky transformation when water meets spirit—while learning why slow rituals help anxious minds find calm.

​🍵You will sip a Moroccan mint and spice cocktail that honors the tea ceremony tradition of making time for your guest, because isolation is the opposite of wellness.

​🌹And you will finish with a Turkish delight cocktail featuring raki, rose, and pomegranate, understanding that gathering around good drinks and good conversation is not indulgent. It is necessary. Each cocktail comes in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions, because this is about the ritual and the presence, not just the alcohol. Intimate, grounding, and a reminder that sometimes the best medicine is slowing down and being with people who see you.

​Limited to 30 guests. Mental health is not a solo journey. Reserve your seat at the table before these close.
