Help the Earth by having a drink this weekend. To honor the 40th anniversary of Earth Day on April 22, the makers of VeeV, “the world’s first acai spirit,” will plant a tree in monsoon-ravaged Tamil Nadu, India, for each of its “Treetini” cocktails ordered at select “eco-chic” South Florida lounges.

“We are striving to reach 10,000 trees in the month of April alone. With your help, we can grow an entire new forest, one Treetini at a time,” said Courtney Reum, co-founder of VeeV, in a press statement.

I have pledged my help, but probably can’t drink 10,000 cocktails myself, so you need to do your part. The Treetinis can be had at these locations: the Delano, Mondrian and Shore Club; Prime One Twelve; the South Seas Hotel; Crescendos; Sol Y Mar; Mova; and River Lounge.
