Libby/Overdrive PIN Verification

Due to recent technical issues with our Libby/Overdrive service, MRSPL cardholders may need to re-verify their PIN/password in Libby. If prompted to verify your MRSPL card, try using the 10-digit phone number (no dashes or spaces) that we have on file in your library account as your PIN/password. If you have set a custom password/PIN, use that custom PIN/password in Libby. If you continue to have issues re-verifying, or need to reset your password, please contact the library at 703-248-5031 (TTY 711) or consult our password reset instructions

Program Description

Event Details

Come learn "How to Make a Mocktail" with Chloe Berry, Manager at The Falls. 

Chloe will demonstrate how to make a Sparkling Strawberry-Cucumber Cooler, a refreshing non-alcoholic drink just right for summer! She will also share her professional insights on how to combine flavors and mixers to create other bespoke mocktail beverages. After the mixology demonstration, participants will get to sample the zero-proof cooler, and will also receive a copy of the recipe to take home.

Enjoy Mocktail Hour at MRSPL!

About the Presenter

My name is Chloe Berry, I am a manager at The Falls right here in Falls Church. I started my career in the hospitality industry bartending and have never lost the passion I once had for beverage creation. 

Now, I’ve come to appreciate zero-proof drinks in the same capacity. My approach to mocktails focuses on fresh ingredients, thoughtful pairings, and elevated presentation—offering guests a refined experience without the spirits.

In this demonstration, I will share pro tips, techniques, and recipes that prove mocktails can be just as complex and satisfying as their alcoholic counterparts. Whether you're a beverage enthusiast, a sober curious guest, or simply looking for inspiration, you're in for a refreshing experience.
