make your own mocktails x hai.

when we approach a session, we treat it with the same respect a sommelier reserves for a fine vintage. true connoisseurs know that high-end cannabis is not something to be masked behind overly sugary soft drinks or heavy, alcohol-laden cocktails that dull the senses.

our clean, sun-grown live rosin hardware is designed to preserve the natural, full-spectrum terpene profiles of the plant. to honor those delicate notes, your glass should do the same. by building sophisticated, non-alcoholic mocktails with high-end botanical ingredients, you can mirror, contrast, and elevate the native chemotypes in every draw.

welcome to the botanical bar.

here are three sophisticated mixology recipes curated specifically to complement the hai. lineup.

designed for: hai. basil bomb live rosin

if you are opening up a session with a savory, herbaceous profile like basil bomb or a bright, zesty hybrid like lemon libertine, you want a drink that balances sharp acidity with fresh green elements. this mocktail echoes the naturally occurring ocimene and limonene in the hardware, cutting through the richness of clean rosin with a crisp finish.

ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz fresh-squeezed ruby red grapefruit juice

  • 1.0 oz pomegranate juice (100% unsweetened)

  • 0.5 oz thyme and thai basil simple syrup

  • topped with premium tonic water or sparkling water

  • garnish: a bruised sprig of sweet basil and a dehydrated grapefruit wheel

the ritual:

  1. muddle two fresh thai basil leaves at the bottom of a highball glass with the botanical simple syrup.

  2. fill the glass with large, clear ice cubes.

  3. pour in the grapefruit and pomegranate juices, stirring gently to integrate.

  4. top with crisp tonic water for a subtle, bitter contrast. garnish with a fresh, aromatic basil sprig right next to your straw so you catch the scent with every sip.

designed for: hai. berry cooler live rosin

berry cooler is celebrated for its deep, juicy, forest-fruit terpene profile. pairing it with a one-note sweet drink risks overwhelming the palate. Instead, this recipe uses the savory, woodsy smoke of charred white sage to ground the bright, berry-forward caryophyllene and myrcene notes, transforming the session into a sultry, complex sensory experience.

ingredients:

  • 2.0 oz wild blackberry puree (strained)

  • 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice

  • 0.5 oz demerara or raw cane syrup

  • 2 drops of culinary-grade orange blossom water

  • topped with club soda

  • garnish: a fresh sage leaf, lightly torched

the ritual:

  1. in a cocktail shaker, combine the wild blackberry puree, fresh lemon juice, demerara syrup, and orange blossom water with plenty of ice.

  2. shake vigorously for 15 seconds until the tin is frosty.

  3. double strain into a chilled coupe or rocks glass over a single large ice sphere.

  4. top with club soda. just before serving, hold a fresh sage leaf over a flame for 2 seconds until it releases a delicate puff of blue smoke, then slap it gently to release the oils and float it face-up on the drink.

designed for: hai. lemon libertine live rosin

when you are leaning into an energetic, uplifting sativa session with a sharp, citrus-heavy strain like lemon libertine, you want a clean-burning companion drink. this cocktail leverages the fiery punch of fresh ginger juice and the cooling, clean aromatics of lemongrass to create a vibrant, crisp sensory bridge that keeps your focus laser-sharp and your palate fully awakened.

ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz lemongrass-infused cold brew white tea

  • 0.75 oz freshly pressed ginger juice (for that distinct, spicy bite)

  • 0.5 oz fresh lime juice

  • 0.5 oz agave nectar

  • garnish: a stalk of fresh lemongrass (used as a stirrer) and a lime twist

the ritual:

  1. combine the lemongrass tea, ginger juice, lime juice, and agave nectar in a shaker filled with crushed ice.

  2. shake well to thoroughly chill the ginger juice and mellow its initial bite.

  3. strain into an elegant rocks glass over clean ice.

  4. garnish with a fresh lime twist and use a cut piece of a lemongrass stalk as a functional, elegant stirring rod.
