Our Spirit House riff on a classic Painkiller—yum yum under the sun.
When Denver gets those perfect summer days, this is what we’re drinking. The Tiki Tattoo takes the tropical vibes of a classic Painkiller and gives it the craft spirits treatment with Annika Jones Vodka, fresh lime and pineapple juice, creamy coconut, herbaceous basil simple syrup, and just a whisper of absinthe to keep you guessing.
It’s bright, it’s balanced, and it’s basically vacation in a glass—minus the airport, plus the good spirits. The basil adds an unexpected twist that makes this more than just another tiki drink, and the absinthe? That’s the secret weapon you didn’t know you needed.
Our 100% Colorado grain-to-glass vodka provides a clean, nuanced base that lets all those tropical and herbal flavors shine without getting in the way. Shaken until properly chilled, strained over ice in a collins glass, and garnished with pineapple frond and wedge because presentation matters—even at 5,280 feet.
The Vibe: Poolside paradise meets craft cocktail creativity
The Occasion: Rooftop hangs, weekend warriors, or pretending you’re on island time
The Move: Don’t be shy with that pineapple garnish
Made at our Denver Spirit House, this recipe is proof that we take tropical drinks seriously—even in the Rockies.
