It's rare that we sell something we don't make or manipulate in some way. But, we were asked for a seltzer, so we set out to find the best one we've ever had.

Turns out, we only had to look as far as New Hampshire. Fabrizia Spirits vodka sodas are made with real fruit, no added sugar, & simple ingredients. They are balanced, deliciously refreshing & the perfect reminder that summer ain ovah yet!

one of our crowing achievements, The Sonic Royale

The love we have for a giant cherry limeade over a mountain of crushed ice is the inspo behind this stone cold stunner. Rum, lime juice, cherry puree, topped with 1911 Established - Made in NY black cherry cider served with crushed ice and a bordeaux cherry. Summer in the south, all growed up & gussied, served on a tiny island in Maine.

If EVER there was a day we wish we could be in two places at once!

Today, Vinalhaven Grange aka Pleasant River Grange 492 is hosting an annual flower show with crafts and activities and we couldn't have worse FOMO about it.

So, go to the Grange, sniff stuff, make stuff, have a beautiful day and then come tell us all about it!

Here is a pic of us recently enjoying the flowers at Glendarragh Farm Lavender because how can you not!?!??!?!
