This Dry July, we’re thrilled to partner with Danny Trejo’s spirit brand, Trejos Spirits, to bring you the ultimate Dry July box. Inside, you’ll discover three classic cocktails with our unique twist: a Peach Margarita, Cactus Rose Ranch Water, and Jarritos Pineapple Paloma. We aimed to craft the perfect trio for a hot summer day—refreshing, cooling, and bursting with vibrant flavor.
Before we dive into the ingredients, let’s share why this collaboration means so much to us. Trejos Spirits and Raising the Bar share a passion for creating inclusive beverages and fostering a welcoming drink experience where everyone has a seat at the table. Getting to know Mr. Trejo’s journey, learning about his stories, and his incredible achievement of being 50 years sober is truly inspiring. We are so excited to showcase his non-alc spirit brand to our amazing RTB community. So, here’s what you’ll find in this upcoming box:
Trejos Spirits Tequila Alternative
You’ll receive a full bottle of this non-alcoholic spirit, featured in every cocktail in July’s box. Its rich, grassy taste is reminiscent of traditional tequila, complemented by hints of citrus and roasted agave. The subtle pepper finish adds a layer of complexity to any drink. Need ideas for enjoying it beyond the box? Savor it in a Tequila Sunrise, indulge in a Tequila Martini, or keep it simple by mixing it with tonic. Use code RAISINGTHEBAR15 for 15% off your entire order at Trejos Spirits for the month of July.
We’re thrilled to partner with Aura Bora again to elevate the deliciousness of our Cactus Rose Ranch Water. This flavor bursts with fresh prickly pear and aromatic rose notes, delivering a bright, floral kick. Aura Bora uses herbal extracts to craft their flavors, without added sweeteners or citric acid. They prioritize planetary and health consciousness, ensuring their cans are sugar-free and calorie-free.
To put our spin on the paloma, we’ve blended the vibrant Jarritos Pineapple flavor with Trejos Spirits to craft the ultimate Pineapple Paloma. It boasts natural flavors, 100% natural sugar, and is proudly Mexican-made. Explore their array of other flavors, perfect for sipping on their own or enhancing any cocktail recipe.
Using natural ingredients, organic sweeteners, and organic fruit juices, IMPROV brings some classic non-alcoholic drinks to life in their zero-proof form. Plus, they are gluten-free, vegan, and non-GMO. If you love your margaritas sweet, sour, salty, and bitter just as they should be, you’re going to love this one.
You’ll also receive tajin, flowered sea salt, lime juice, and the most fun cactus stirrers to complete the cocktails you’ll be able to mix up with this box. As always, we’ve curated a happy hour playlist for you to enjoy with this month’s box. Be sure to save the playlist so you can revisit it whenever you’re crafting your cocktails.
