🥂 We’re turning 17!

On Tuesday 15 September, we’re celebrating 17 years of Gothenburg - and we thought we’d mark the occasion with something a little special.

Meet our Lingonberry Mule - just $17 for a limited time.

Absolut Vodka, lingonberry jam, thyme, lime juice & ginger b**r.

Lingonberries are a superfruit native to the Northern Hemisphere, so it felt like the perfect little nod to our Swedish roots. ❤️

Our Swedish meatballs are still on the menu as well for our birthday month - $17.

17 years and a tasty $17 cocktail - come try it!
