LEISURE LETTER 006: The Dandy Cocktail

One night, in an attempt to recreate a cocktail they recently had at an upscale Los Angeles bar, the now partners of Dandy Del Mar began to experiment with all the available ingredients in the kitchen. Soon they were onto something and throughout the course of perfecting the drink through slight adjustments of the recipe, the cocktail inspired conversations of exotic travels and a lifestyle of leisure. What was born was a drink that was tasty, smooth and refreshing., and also a resortwear brand named Dandy Del Mar.
