Some problems require emotional support. Other problems require plot twists, fantasy worlds, and a drink to match. 📚🍹

Step 1: Recognize you need a hug.

Step 2: Realize a huge book (and a fresh cocktail) works way better.

Step 3: Sink into a booth and don't leave until the last chapter.

Consider this your sign to cancel your plans, grab a table, and get lost in a story tonight 😎 What are you reading this week? 👇

As the days shorten, the ruler of the shade reclaims his queen. 🥀👑

Meet our September Drink of the Month: King of the Underworld! This drink is a dark, brooding spin on the classic Old Fashioned inspired by the myth of Hades, Persephone, and the autumn equinox.

We’ve infused rich bourbon with tart pomegranate (the original temptation), a splash of simple syrup, and a dash of chocolate bitters for a crisp, spirit-forward cocktail built for cool autumn nights. Then we finish it off with a silver glitter skull ice cube!

Six seeds were all it took. One sip is all you’ll need 💀

Available all September long. Step into the dark side and try one tonight. 🍂🥃
