It began, as the best things often do, with a casual sisterly conversation. After years of effortlessly commanding the bar—from renowned Rivertowns restaurants to intimate private gatherings—Colleen Cushman was prompted by her sister Alana with a simple idea: “Why not brand your brilliance?”
And just like that, Clink with Colleen was born. Clink is a mobile bartending experience that’s as elevated as it is effortless, blending artisanal mixology with modern hospitality.
Clink quickly became a coveted name within Westchester and beyond, gracing private parties from Philadelphia to Upstate New York. Wherever they go, the Clink team doesn’t just serve drinks, they set the mood, curate the moment, and leave an impression long after the last toast.
But this is no ordinary bar-on-wheels. Converging the creative minds of Colleen and event coordinator Andrew McManus has transformed Clink into a brand rooted in craft and community.
Their collaborations read like a who’s-who of Lower Hudson Valley cool—think HudCo, Climbing Wolf, Picture Book, and Bloomy Cheese & Provisions. They create immersive events like cocktail classes, cheese-pairing evenings, and Sip & Script nights.
Clink’s secret ingredient? People. This passion project is now powered by a roster of over 40 expert mixologists, barbacks, and servers who turn every celebration into a polished, unique affair.
Whether it’s a garden brunch or a black-tie birthday, Clink designs drinks that tell a story. Event extraordinaires Colleen and Andrew work closely with hosts to offer them uniquely tailored cocktails. With on-theme cocktail names, hand-selected ingredients, and a pop-up bar, Colleen and Andrew bring downtown sophistication to your living room.
The best part? Clink handles it all. From bar setup to ingredient sourcing, their seamless service means hosts can step out of the prep and into the party.
Clink with Colleen’s creative efforts are ever-evolving. Clink consults with cocktail bars and restaurants, and provides staffing services, offshoring their esteemed talent to those with staffing needs. Colleen is also bringing her sensibility into new territories—most notably the intersection of fashion and flavor.
Enter Fashion Night Out, Clink’s ultra-stylish foray into the world of fashion, art, and nightlife. Think runway shows with curated cocktails, and an immersive gift market showcasing local makers. This fall, mark your calendar for two can’t-miss moments: Gala for Good on September 13, in partnership with Sleepy Coffee, Too, and the Spring/Summer ’26 Fashion Night Out runway extravaganza on October 11. Both events with unfold within the industrial-chic halls of HudCo.
