•ᴥ•Drinks With Benefits:
Functional Beverages & Modern Hospitality
Join Joshua James, proprietor of Ocean Beach Cafe, alongside Dash Lilley, Co-Founder and Head of Product at Three Spirit, for an industry afternoon at Kona’s designed for bartenders, operators, beverage directors, and restaurant teams curious about building functional and nonalcoholic cocktail programs that are inclusive, creatively driven, and seriously profitable.
Functional drinks are no longer niche. They’re modern hospitality, mainstream herbalism, and one of the most exciting opportunities behind the bar.
Joshua will cover the category, the business opportunity, and Dash will give you the language to talk about functional benefits with confidence, plus a hands-on workshop on kava, kanna*, cacao, and other wild functional ingredients making their way into the glass.
Expect plant powered cocktails from the Kona's Team, light bites, lots of bottles, collaborative Q&A, and open conversation.
Come taste, learn, make something new, and stay for a happy hour (open to the public) at 4pm.
*these herbs aren't for everyone. We'll discuss that, too!
