Viva Magenta Pomtini

Thank you to Hualani’s Bartender Matt and Food & Beverage Director, Cory Dotario, for taking our Pom Your Tini (Pomegranate Martini) from a dreamy pink to a Viva Magenta to celebrate the PANTONE Color of the Year 2023 (PANTONE 18-1750.)

The Pom Your Tini is a limited offering on Hualani’s “Only At Da Bar Menu” where many of the specialty cocktails are inspired by the Farm at Hōkūala’s fresh harvest of seasonal fruits, herbs and edible flowers. To achieve Pantone’s self-described “animated red that revels in pure joy,” Bartender Matt has added a bold dash of Grenadine to the original recipe to create the Viva Magenta shade that “welcomes anyone and everyone with the same verve for life and rebellious spirit.” This is the perfect drink to brighten your spirits on a cloudy day!
