Watermelon Sugar

Inspired by Harry Styles’ classic hit "Watermelon Sugar",this infamous cocktailsold out last year so it’s back by popular demand. As tasty as it is Instagram-able, this frozen summer-y creation is made with Firefly’s Low Country Gin and Lemonade Vodka and garnished with a whole watermelon slice.

Shakey Fuel

Calling all Moscow Mule lovers, this one will make you want to sing. The Shakey Fuel was made in honor ofShakey Graveshimself playing live at the distillery and features Charleston’s own Sweatman Ginger Beer, Firefly’s Classic Vodka, and of course fresh lime juice.  

Don't let the heat slow you down. These seasonal cocktails are here for the summer and then they are gone.
