Story-2:: Monday is for Drinking
Overview: A cultural shift is underway - a mindset toward self-care, staying sharp, and living life without compromise. This is not a trend - this is a movement that refuses to choose between good health and great taste. Crafted with care from natural ingredients at our Southern California distillery, Monday's non-alcoholic spirits are a labor of love — our way of helping alcohol-avoiders (like us!) enjoy a proper adult beverage today without worrying about how you'll feel tomorrow. Welcome to Monday.
Kits they have:
Monday Mezcal - an agave original perfect for Paloma's & Margarita's
Monday Whiskey - premium Bourbon made for Old Fashioned's Hand crafted recipe cards to assure drink excellence
Monday Gin - a classic London Dry gorgeous in a G&T

Story-3:: Welcome to the Jungle (JUNGLE BIRD Rum, Lime, Pineapple, Red Bitters)
Overview: This if-you-know-you-know treasure came to notoriety in the early ‘70s as a Kuala Lumpur hotel’s swanky welcome cocktail. Lighthearted rum punch vibes are balanced by red bitters—a glamorous combo that's ready to party. It's an under-the-radar bartender favorite. An exotic throwback that’ll make any evening more playful, and now it's yours to enjoy wherever and whenever.
Please note: this is available online for a limited time only. If y’all love it and buy it up, maybe we’ll make some more. But no promises. Cheers.
Story-4:: Chat GPT X Negronis With Greg
Overview: ChatGPT: Optimizing Language Models for Dialogue. We’ve trained a model called ChatGPT, which interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests. ChatGPT is a sibling model to InstructGPT, which is trained to follow instructions in a prompt and provide a detailed response.
“Write an Instagram post about my Ready to drink Negroni and include relevant hashtags” is what I requested or queried from Chat GPT. This is the response of the system. “Raise a glass to the weekend with our delicious, ready-to-drink Negroni! Perfectly balanced, with a bold and bitter taste, it's the perfect way to unwind after a long week. Cheers to #Negroni #Cocktails #HappyHour #WeekendVibes #Booze #DrinkUp #CraftCocktails #CocktailHour #Mixology #BarLife”
