In Maui’s quiet upcountry, we’re aware of the holiday’s looming presence by only a slight chill in the air. In which case, we throw on some booties and a cardi and call it…really freakin’ cold.
Whether the air completely feels ready to welcome a more “traditional” Christmas or not, islanders know how to bring on the merriment with friends and family—related or not. Here in the store, we like to channel our holiday spirit in the form of sparkly getups, gorgeous pearl accessories, and a few fruity cocktails with our best gals.
In lieu of the champagne pops to come, we looked to our Maui girl Lily Diamond’s “Kale & Caramel” cookbook [order here!] to give us a recipe for a delicious holiday drink. This Pomegranate & Thyme Spritzer features vibrant pom with a fancy finish we know you’ll love.
If you catch yourself drooling over a piece of jewelry, it’s not too late to spoil someone (or yourself) for Christmas. We ship worldwide & our packaging is on point. From our sunny island in paradise, we wish you and yours the happiest of holidays! Now go get tipsy.
