dLeña Celebrates the Earth with the Return of its “Viva Abejas” Campaign this Spring!

Friday March 21, 2025

dLeña by Chef Richard Sandoval is excited to announce the return of its annual Viva Abejas campaign this spring. From Tuesday, March 21 through Sunday, April 23, guests are invited to indulge in the earth’s harvests at the Mount Vernon Triangle modern Mexican concept.

Chef Richard Sandoval has developed food and beverage menus that demonstrate the importance of bees while highlighting Pachamama, the Incan goddess of Earth, planting, harvesting and fertility. dLeña will feature a few of these themed menu items including the enchiladas doradas made with a Mexican calabacitas stew, honey-bell pepper sauce, queso fresco, crema, and corn tortilla, the Brazilian Bee made with Sao Paulo Cachaça prata, coconut-infused honey, grapefruit, and lemon, and the Honey Lavender Margarita made with Milagro Blanco Tequila, lime, honey, lavender, créme de violette, and triple sec. Those withstanding from alcohol will enjoy the Ritual de la Habitual, made with zero-proof Ritual Tequila Alternative, Seedlip Grove, key lime, pineapple, and vanilla-infused honey. All cocktail and mocktail orders will feature wildflower seed packets so guests can bring a token home and plant flowers to directly help the bees.
