Crafted with intention. Inspired by legacy.
A bold, no-nonsense cocktail with depth and character. Just like Betty, it doesn't hold back—smooth, strong, and unforgettable. Crafted with Hillside's Hellfighter Whiskey, stirred with house-made brown sugar syrup and a dash of bitters, then poured over a cold block of ice for a rich, perfectly balanced finish.
Soft-spoken yet unforgettable, this gin infused cocktail is delicate, smooth, and beautifully balanced. Just like Vi, it welcomes you in with quiet grace— light, floral notes layered with a touch of citrus, leaving a lasting impression long after the last sip.
A rich fusion of passion fruit and mango balanced by mezcal's smoke, Grand Marnier's orange glow, and the smooth depth of Casa Amigos Añejo Tequila.
A modern twist on a classic—this Old Fashioned blends bourbon with our house-made blackberry bitters, adding deep berry richness, subtle tannins, and a touch of jammy sweetness. Stirred slow and served over a single cube, it finishes warm, smooth, and beautifully fruit-forward.
"A tribute to Nina Simone's fearless artistry, this cocktail blends gin with starfruit, mint, and lemon for a bright, striking opening. Then the blackberry liqueur settles in — deep, moody, and soulful — echoing the weight and beauty of 'Strange Fruit.' A drink that balances light and darkness, just as she did in every song."
"The Billy Strayhorn is a velvet-lined tribute to the jazz genius himself. Rémy Martin VSOP lays down the warm, refined baseline, crème de cacao adds a silky melodic sweetness, and a whisper of heavy cream brings it all together like a late-night chord progression. Smooth, sophisticated, and quietly powerful — just like Strayhorn's legacy."
A dark, refined espresso martini—layered, confident, and crafted in homage to the innovation and strength of Black Wall Street.
"This drink honors the founders of NC Mutual Life Insurance — leaders who built opportunity out of determination. Rémy Martin 1738 offers a rich, steady base, lemon cuts through with bright optimism, and simple syrup binds it together like community strength. A glass raised to legacy, leadership, and lasting impact."
"This one's for Mama Dip — the queen of NC kitchens, mother of eight, and teller of truths with no filter needed. White peach-ginger syrup and Old Hillside 'The Last Ryed' rye come together over a single cube to make a drink that's sweet as her cooking and strong as her spirit. A sip feels like she's still right here, keeping us fed and in line."
