Happy Wednesday, everyone!
It’s been a little while since we’ve posted, but for good reason—we bought our first house and moved to Joshua Tree! We’re finally getting settled in and absolutely loving our new home and all the wonderful people we have met so far. As you can see, Noki is too—relaxed and enjoying one of the new sips we’re adding to our fall menu.
What really makes this drink shine is the incredible gin from . We had the pleasure of visiting their distillery in Ireland back in March and instantly fell in love with it. Their recipe features botanicals like rowan berry, fuchsia, bog myrtle, hawthorn, and heather—capturing the wild Kerry landscape in every sip.
This gin blended beautifully with citrusy mandarin and yuzu super juice, plus just a touch of habanero heat, creating a refreshing twist on a traditional Tom Collins. Perfect for this desert heat.
Bootsy Collins
1.5 oz Gin
0.25 oz mandarin syrup
0.25 oz simple syrup
0.25 oz yuzu super juice ( which you can get locally at - you must check out if you are in the area. Amazing store full of fresh unique Asian and American ingredients. Say hi to Macy, the owner.)
1 dash habanero
3 oz soda water
We named this cocktail after Bootsy Collins—the legendary American bassist and singer known for his funkadelic style—which we thought perfectly represents this creation.
Cheers 🥂🥂🤟🤟🎸🎸
