A Bridgeport woman has found a new way to "mix things up" by securing what she says is one of Connecticut's only mobile alcoholic beverage bars.

Mary Jackson opened the business-on-wheels called Mary J. Lounge LLC.

She says it feels great to be making money and make her dreams come true.

"For me, this is the American Dream because there's nothing like it. It's a mobile beverage bar. No one has this and it was always a dream for me to do it, and I just went out on faith and said, 'I'm going to do it,' and I did it," she says.

Jackson says she decided to go for it after attending an M&T Women's Summit.
