We're reviving cocktails lost to the throes of time, a "revival of the fittest" if you will. While you sip your Southside, you too can ponder its convoluted history and smile knowing it's back for good.

Now you can enjoy this delicious cocktail on the go.

Freshly squeezed with premium gin, all-natural, organic, gluten-free ingredients, you can indulge in this fresh as f*ck cocktail anytime with our ready-to-enjoy format.
