Honeysuckle Magazine covered an exclusive preview event at The Butcher’s Daughter in New York City, where Iconic Tonics — the functional beverage brand founded by Snoop Dogg and Evan Eneman — introduced a Kanna-based cocktail designed to redefine nightlife through wellness, connection, and non-alcoholic culture.
Here’s an excerpt from the article:
“As this non-alcoholic culture rises, people still want that sense of connection. Kanna gives guests a feeling of presence and joy—without losing clarity.” – Denise Lepow, Head of Brand Strategy Partnership Development
The feature highlights Kanna, a South African botanical known for its mood-lifting and heart-opening properties, as the centerpiece of Iconic Tonics’ vision for mindful social experiences. The debut drink, the Grilled Lemon Spritz, blends grilled lemon, ginger, mint, amaro falso, and Kanna extract to deliver an immediate yet balanced sense of calm and connection.
The article also explores how the partnership between Iconic Tonics and The Butcher’s Daughter reflects a broader cultural shift—one where wellness, creativity, and nightlife coexist without alcohol or THC. The collaboration extends beyond cocktails, with Iconic Tonics beverages featured at both the restaurant and its vinyl-focused listening bar concept, Only The Wild Ones.
