"On a trip to Maui in 2015, we visited Fleetwood's on Front Street, a hip restaurant located in the heart of the Lahaina tourist district. We enjoyed this delicious cocktail from the rooftop while enjoying a picturesque Hawaiian sunset. What makes this cocktail so memorable is that you sense every ingredient with every sip."

 

In August 2023, a devastating wildfire destroyed the downtown Lahaina Historic District, including Front Street. 10% of proceeds from Rose Colored Glasses will be donated to select charities supporting ongoing relief in and the rebuilding of Lahaina.

Spirit Recommendations

Monkey 47 Dry Gin - Nothing compares to the original: Rose Colored Glasses was served at Fleetwood's using Monkey 47. This ultra-premium gin can be sipped straight on the rocks or neat, but here, the strong floral notes pair nicely with the rose water and compliment the juices and bitters. The smoothness of the gin balances out the citrus.

Instructions

1. Pour ½ oz champagne or sparkling wine into (preferably chilled) cocktail coupe
2. In large shaker, combine ½ oz lemon juice, ½ oz grapefruit juice, ¼ oz rose water, ¼ oz simple syrup, 2 dashes orange bitters, and 1 ½ oz gin
3. Add large ice cubes (so as to not dilute the cocktail) and shake vigorously for at least 15 seconds
4. Strain into coupe over the bubbles
