Blood Orange Yuzu Paloma

A refreshing remix of the classic Paloma, this one brings together juicy blood orange, tangy yuzu, and smooth 100% agave spirit. It’s bold without being too sweet and totally crushable. We love serving this for daytime events—think rooftop brunches, birthday picnics, or your next founder-funder happy hour. Pro tip: garnish with a dried citrus wheel and serve it over ice for maximum presentation points.

Pear Ginger

‍Light, slightly spicy, and ultra-refreshing, this vodka-based sparkler is the ultimate “drink that goes with everything.” Pear adds a delicate sweetness, while ginger gives it just enough bite. It’s ideal for transitional seasons, cocktail hours, and corporate mixers where you want to serve something that feels elevated but still approachable. A welcome upgrade from your usual vodka soda.

Strawberry Lemonade

This is your not-so-average strawberry lemonade—with a kick. Lightly sparkling and spiked with vodka, it’s fruity, fun, and seriously crowd-pleasing. We reach for this one at backyard BBQs, pool parties, and open houses where you want a drink that everyone will love. Serve in a tall glass with a sprig of mint for a fresh finish.
