Share Our Strength Fundraiser at Prairie Fire; Free Coffee at Timothy O'Toole's; Wine Gifts at Cellar Rat

WEST LOOP—White whisky winter sour vs. the Red Beard hot toddy? That's the challenge tomorrow night as two guest bartenders step behind the bar at Prairie Fire to help raise funds for Share Our Strength. Head to the West Loop spot between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Dec. 14 and tip well. The bartenders, Adam Murphy and Roger Kamholz, will donate all their tips to Share Our Strength. [EaterWire]

STREETERVILLE—Pop into Timothy O'Toole's Pub on Dec. 21 anytime all day and enjoy a complimentary coffee to help warm up. Need more motivation? Their warm winter cocktails, including traditional Irish coffee and Captain Morgan's spiced cider, will be half priced. [EaterWire]

BUCKTOWN—Need a gift for a wine lover? Cellar Rat is offering its various "rat packs" at 15 percent off but orders need to be placed by 2 p.m. Dec. 14. You can choose from three different packs, including "old world reds," "dry old world whites" or a mix of both. The bottom line? Six bottles, including a reusable tote, run $90. Email your order or call 773-489-2728. [Cellar Rat]
