Bourbon may officially be America's spirit, and the 4th of July our celebration of independence, but two important traditions existed at least as early, if not before.

Lavender in the Rye is one of our new favorite rye whiskey cocktails and an absolute crowd pleaser. The lavender bitters and sugar cane syrup are excellent additions to the rye.

A crisp, tart, and refreshing twist on the classic daiquiri, famously enjoyed by writer Ernest Hemingway. Unlike the traditional version, this cocktail swaps out sugar for maraschino liqueur, balancing the bright acidity of fresh lime and grapefruit juice with a hint of sweetness. A timeless favorite that delivers a bold yet smooth citrusy kick, perfect for warm weather sipping.

Legend has it that Don the Beachcomber concocted the first instance of the Zombie to help a hungover customer survive an important business meeting. We suggest skipping the meeting altogether to enjoy this classic cocktail, which uses four different types of rum. Limit two per person.

The Gold Standard sets the bar for excellence. The heavy combo of sugarcane spirits creates a golden hue, and the fresh lime and syrup adds sweet and citrus flavors. Move over Mai Tai, we have a new rumtastic cocktail in house.

The ultimate escape-in-a-glass, bursting with tropical flavor and island flair. Our Bartender Angie came up with an umbrella drink that's sure to make you feel like your toes are inches deep in the sand. It's quite literally called Tiki Drink, and is full of all the sunshine you'll ever need. This rum-based tiki cocktail brings a festive, vacation-ready vibe to any occasion.
