peppermintI just got the chance to chat with Miss Peppermint about eating in and eating out! She is best known as a runner-up on the ninth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the actress and singer will be making her Broadway debut as part of The Go-Go’s inspired musical Head Over Heels. The show previews here in San Francisco at the Curran Theatre starting tonight before making its way to New York where Peppermint will be the first trans woman to originate a principal role on Broadway.

I’m hosting a reception for the musical on Wednesday, April 11th, where drink proceeds from a “Miss Peppermint” inspired cocktail will go to TRUTH (TRans yoUTH), a joint program between Transgender Law Center and GSA Network. The program seeks to amplify the voices of trans and gender non-conforming young people by offering a safe place to share struggles, learn empathy, and build public understanding. Please join us!

Curran partners with Humphry Slocombe to create “We Got The Beet,” a limited edition ice cream flavor celebrating the pre-Broadway engagement of Head Over Heels.“We Got the Beet” incorporates homemade raspberry jam and hand-squeezed lime juice to create a flavor that is light and fruity. The creamy pink creation made with Straus Family Farm Organic dairy carries a sweetness from the beets, highlighting the all natural ingredients in the handmade ice cream. Flavor available during the month of April at all Humphry Slocombe Bay Area locations.
