Say Yum: Eco Cocktails at JW Marriott


What better way to celebrate Earth Day than with a cocktail? For that matter - what isn't appropriate to recognize with a cocktail, except perhaps your graduation from rehab? The JW Marriott has crafted a special menu of eco-cocktails and a special list of organic wines by the glass to help raise awareness of rainforest preservation.

Beginning Monday and lasting through the summer, these cocktails will be avail in the lounge. 30 percent of the proceeds will be donated to rainforest preservation through the Juma Sustainable Development Reserve, which assists Amazon rainforests.


The cocktail menu features Prairie Organic® vodka and includes drinks like:
  • Strawberry Fields, muddled fresh strawberries, basil leaves, simple syrup
  • Prairie Sage Sour, bruised sage leaves, sage infused simple syrup, and house made sour mix
  • Prairie Fresh, cucumber and mint leaves muddles with simple syrup.
  • Wines by the glass include: Cartlidge and Browne Sauvignon Blanc, Pacific Rim Organic Riesling, Vida Organica Malbec Rose, and Vida Organica Torrontes.
A $1 contribution to the Juma Reserve helps offset the average carbon generated per occupied guest room per night at the JW Marriott. Patrons of Bar 1331 will also have the option to make an additional $10 donation to their check, to help offset the carbon footprint of 10 room nights.
