Haamonii (harmony) ShochuLow calorie cocktails – only 35 calories per serving

This week’s cocktail was inspired by a trip to an awesome new restaurant over the weekend. Namu, a Korean-New Californian fusion place, was an awesome experience for all 5 senses and featured some delicious flavor pairings that I wouldn’t have even dreamed of trying together.  Until I came here.  I learned many new things, but [...]

This week’s cocktail was inspired by a weekend full of random tomfoolery and general misbehaving, with a solid dose of acting like a college frat boy thrown in (weekends like this are few and far between, but sometimes you just can’t resist that Irish pub’s beer pong tournament). I also noticed that my past few [...]

This week’s cocktail is pretty awesome, I’m not going to lie.  I was very pleased by the result, especially after the pain I underwent (in true San Francisco style, details follow) to make it happen.  I’d mentioned in previous posts how I try to get inspired for Haamonii cocktails by fresh produce, and this week’s [...]

While I’ve personally grown out of my obsession with unnaturally-bright orange-flavored soda (for the most part, we’re all human), I still love combining the concept of “orange” with the concept of [...]

Earlier this week, I asked our friends on Facebook for a recommendation about what they’d like to see this week’s cocktail feature. I got responses (Thank you!!) saying either “cool and refreshing” or “do a warm cocktail! It’s cold on the East Coast!,” which are wonderful recommendations, but are about as opposite as you can [...]

..if only. The Bay area has been blessed with some very out-of-season beautiful weather, which is a wonderful and welcome change of pace [read: it's been raining constantly for weeks]. So in celebration of this lovely, most likely short-lived weather, here’s a low-cal, amped-up version of my favorite summertime drink– The Mojito. The ingredient that [...]

Ah, the holidays. They mean a lot of things to many people. Here at Haamonii, the holidays mean we strive to find as many ways to share our lives and passions with as many people as we can, reaffirm our support of the causes we are passionate about, and taking a moment to cherish the [...]
