Awake & Tonic Highball

Awake & Tonic Highball

A high-vibe, energizing botanical blend designed to sharpen your focus and refresh your palate.

This is not your average garden-variety highball. The Awake & Tonic 🌿🔋 is a sophisticated, functional ritual built for modern unwinding. It pairs the crisp, juniper-forward backbone of Dhōs Gin Free with Dromme Awake—a premium zero-proof spirit packed with adaptogens and complex botanicals. Together, they create an incredibly clean, herbaceous foundation. When topped with a premium tonic, the bubbles unlock hidden layers of pine, citrus, and earth, giving you a deeply satisfying "spirituous" experience that leaves you feeling focused and entirely refreshed.

🥂 Cheers to staying sharp, feeling vibrant, and raising a glass to total presence.

🌲 Crisp Juniper – Traditional, piney gin-style notes from Dhōs Gin Free.

⚡ Energizing Botanicals – A complex, earthy, and mind-clearing depth from Dromme Awake.

🫧 Bitter Effervescence – Premium tonic water brings a clean, snappy effervescence.

🍊 Ruby & Herbal – Fresh grapefruit and slapped rosemary tie the botanical profile together with a zesty, aromatic finish.

  1. Prep the Glass: Fill a tall highball glass to the brim with fresh, high-quality ice.
  2. Pour the Base: Add 1.5 oz Dromme Awake and 1.5 oz Dhōs Gin directly over the ice.
  3. The Fizz: Top the glass with 4–5 oz of premium tonic water, pouring slowly to preserve the carbonation.
  4. The Lift: Give the mix one gentle stir from the bottom up to integrate the spirits without bruising the bubbles.
  5. Aromatize & Garnish: Give the rosemary sprig a quick slap between your palms to release its oils, tuck it into the glass alongside the grapefruit wedge, and serve.
