Mellow Mushroom is proud to announce that they will be partnering with Susan G. Komen for a Breast Cancer fundraising campaign featuring the return of the fan-favorite Go Pink cocktail and Mellow Mushroom pretzels that will be served in a limited-time only ribbon shape. From Tuesday, Sept. 24 through Monday, Nov.11, $1 from every Go Pink cocktail and every whole order of pretzel ribbons sold will be donated to Susan G. Komen, the world’s leading breast cancer organization.

The Go Pink cocktail is made with Casamigos Reposado Tequila, lime & cranberry juice, garnished with a lemon twist and a pink ribbon-shaped stir stick and pairs perfectly with Mellow Mushroom’s menu of hand-tossed, stone-baked pizzas, calzones, hoagies and more. Mellow Mushroom’s stone-baked pretzels tossed in garlic butter and parmesan will be served in a ribbon shape and served with Mellow red sauce for the duration of the campaign.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Susan G. Komen for a second year,” said Anne Mejia, Senior Vice President of Brand Development at Mellow Mushroom, in a press release. “Our goal is to help make a significant and lasting impact in the fight against breast cancer, and our Mellow Mushroom family is honored to contribute.”

In addition, for the second consecutive year, Mellow Mushroom’s corporate team will be attending the Susan G. Komen Georgia MORE THAN PINK Walk on Oct. 26, and will invite franchisees of Mellow stores in and adjacent to Georgia to join.
