Product History & Little-Known Facts

• The Kitchen Experiment: DrunkenApe began as an ambitious passion project in Nairobi, where two mixology enthusiasts began experimenting with natural infusions in returnable glass containers to combat single-use plastics and sub-par ready-to-drink mixers.

• Cinematic Persona: Each drink in the DrunkenApe lineup is themed around iconic film characters and provocative concepts. While options like Django Untamed play on spicy hibiscus tequila and Lupin’s Steal embraces lemongrass vodka, 69 Shades of Grey was conceived as the seductive, mysterious wildcard of the family.

• Eco-Conscious Packaging: DrunkenApe packages every serving in signature returnable glass bottles. This approach keeps your cocktails ice-cold while maintaining a sustainable footprint across Nairobi’s night scene.
