WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA — Alfred Coffee celebrated a boozy National Tequila Day over the weekend with a very Instagammable pop-up in West Hollywood.

The Los Angeles favorite teamed up with Kendall Jenner's 818 Tequila brand to offer free "tea-quila" drinks and coffee cocktails on Saturday, the day before National Tequila Day. From 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, nearly 1,000 Angelenos tasted free tequila cocktails at Alfred Tea Room's West Hollywood location, located at 8509 Melrose Ave.
