Offering more than 2,500 wine, beer and spirits products, Drizly gives consumers the same selection and price they will find in stores. And, with the most expansive network of retail delivery partners, Drizly offers customers the fastest delivery times, with alcohol typically delivered in less than an hour.

The LA launch comes immediately on the heels of Drizly completing its $4.8 million round of seed funding. Now, Drizly continues its rapid expansion in the United States with Los Angeles joining New York City, Boston and just-launched Chicago as major metropolitan areas serviced by Drizly. Drizly also services The Hamptons on Long Island.

"By delivering in Los Angeles, Drizly is now the only service of its kind with a national footprint and always the same prices as in-store. With its sprawling layout and cocktail culture, there was little question LA would be an ideal city for our continued expansion," said Nick Rellas, Drizly co-founder and CEO. "Drizly makes it easier to make inspired cocktails at home, or simply enjoy your favorite adult beverage without worrying about driving or parking."

Drizly is available for download on iPhone and Android. As a special welcome to Los Angeles drinkers, new Drizly members can enter WELCOMELA at checkout for $10 off any order placed before June 30. They can also follow @DrizlyLA on Twitter and Instagram for the latest local updates, events and promotions.
