    Cheers Manhattan with Stirrings Simply Better Cocktail Mixers

    How did I make it?

    LEMON DROP MARTINI

    The Lemon Drop, a modern classic.

    Two opposites colliding to create nirvana: pure cane sugar and bitter lemons. Once you taste it, you’ll never want them to part. Mix our Stirrings Lemon Drop Mixer with your favorite vodka, and dont forget the rimmer, the cocktail isnt complete without it!

    Ingredients
    3 oz Stirrings® Simple Lemon Drop Martini Cocktail Mixer

    1.5 oz Smirnoff® Vodka

    Garnish: Lemon Drop Rimmer (optional)

    Directions

    In a cocktail shaker combine Stirrings® Simple Lemon Drop Martini Cocktail Mixer, vodka and ice. Shake well and strain into a rimmed (optional) cocktail glass.

    IT’S SWEET. IT’S SOUR. IT’S AWESOME.

    Only $6.99

    Since its origin in the early 1990s, the key to a really great Lemon Drop has been the perfect balance between sweet and sour. To ensure your Lemon Drops maintain that balance every time, we make our mixer with pure cane sugar and bittersweet Eureka lemons. And we use a unique kettle-batch process to preserve their flavor and vibrant color. Sweet and sour; it’s not just for pork.

    Did you know: There are 47 varieties of lemons. We prefer the Eurekas for their true “bitter” lemon taste, high acid content, and abundant juice.

    Make your Lemon Drop glimmer like the sun with a sparkly, pucker-up rim of lemon sugar. Just the right amount of sweetness to perfectly complement the tartness of the lemon.

    Key Men’s Fashion Trends to Follow This Fall

    Fall is here and it is a perfect time to reorganize and update our wardrobes with some new trendy pieces. For men, this means adding sweaters, scarves and coats to their wardrobes. This season, many classics are back, including roll-necks, tactile fabrics and quilted jackets. If you are looking for some timeless staples, here are some musts to update your look. But, if you are searching for women’s fashion trends, check this post here.

    MOSS GREEN

    Rich, deep, mossy green was one of the most popular shade on the catwalks for Fall/Winter 2017, applied to everything from streetwear to suiting. The best part about this color is that works perfectly on all skin tones. Plus, this color works great in almost every outfit, as it breaks up grey, navy and black and adds a touch of daringness. Olive shade is more common for street-wear, while moss green when paired with black has a smarter appeal.

    ROLL-NECKS

    In a rainbow of colors, styles, thicknesses and patterns, roll necks were a huge hit on the runways. However, if you are not sure how to follow this fashion trend, we suggest you to invest in two styles: a charcoal or camel design, so that you can slip them under your suits, and a thick knit to wear with your favorite cord trousers.

    QUILTED JACKET

    This type of jackets are very trendy, so make sure to update your look with such a jacket as soon as possible. You can find them in a quite a few versions: quilted blazers, quilted moto jackets and quilted bombers in classic shades of khaki green, navy, grey and black. For a smart-casual look, pair an olive jacket with a gingham shirt, slim-leg jeans and desert boots.

    TACTILE FABRICS

    Tactile fabrics like corduroy and herringbone are here to stay. They will make autumn-winter 2017 as good as it does to look at. You can choose to wear a corduroy suit, with a fuller silhouette and a slight rise on the trouser. Follow this trend by adding one or two textured pieces to your combination. Navy, green, or any other color from the subtle color palette will fit perfectly to any outfit.

    STATEMENT KNITWEAR

    Knitwear with logos and patterns are having a moment. And trust us, making a statement with your top is less risky than patterned trousers. The key with statement knitwear is making sure that your knitwear cloth gets heard. The easiest way to make an impression with your dramatic piece is to pair it with neutral staples.

    ALL-CAMEL EVERYTHING

    This fall, you can't go wrong with a camel outfit. We worn camel jackets, but this season the way to style it is from head to toe. For maximum impact, try to mix different camel shades and patterns. If you don't like wearing all camel, you can break it up with cream or navy.

    ONE TRIBE APPAREL – THAI BOHEMIAN MEETS CALIFORNIA COAST

    INSPIRED BY THAILAND

    One Tribe Apparel formed in the rolling hills of northern Thailand after witnessing the wellspring of creativity in the local art, music & fashion scene.

    Embraced by travelers, festival goers and the yoga community they look to capture the serendeptious magic that happens from building a positive artistic community.

    PARTNERING WITH LOCAL ARTISANS

    One Tribe Apparel showcases both the beautiful traditional clothing of Northern Thailand and the own unique styles created through exclusive collaborations with local artists & designers.

    In both cases they are committed to fair wages, good working conditions and supporting the communities of Chiang Mai and PAI.

    It all started with the traditional multi-patterned harem pants and kimonos but as they’ve grown they’re proud to feature their own line of yoga mat strapsbohemian handbags & embroidered denim shorts.

    SUPPORTING ELEPHANT NATURE PARK

    Located 30 km outside of their homebase in Chiang Mai, The Elephant Nature park rescues mistreated elephants and gives them a home to run free.

    They make a donation from every sale and look forward to working with them on exclusive products where 100% of proceeds will benefit the park.

    BUILDING A GLOBAL COMMUNITY

    From the start it was a priority for One Tribe Apparel to collaborate and engage with women around the world. The response they’ve received though… is something they could never have anticipated.

    They’ve now collaborated or had photo’s submitted by women from over 40 different countries.

    This inspired them to create the 1st International Crowdsourced Lookbook.

    Instead of a traditional model shoot they showcase the One Tribe Apparel style by featuring women from 6 continents & 16 countries in locations that have special meaning for them.
