After a long day at work, a martini always hits the spot. So, if you want it and need it, why not Cheez-It?
That's exactly what the popular baked snack cracker company has concocted for its Studio Cheez-It nightclub in New York City. The brand's shaking things up, quite literally, with a Cheez-It-infused martini that's all the rage.
Fans can enjoy the unique mix at the world's only Cheez-It Club this weekend in the heart of the East Village, open from 8 p.m. until 2 a.m.
The Cheez-Tini is the signature drink, but fans can also get their hands on Cheez-It-infused cocktails and mocktails, on top of Cheez-It-inspired snacks.
