Superstar rappers and producers Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg have teamed up and are set to open the first Still G.I.N. lounge. This will see their signature drink Still G.I.N. along with various other cocktails and an R&B and hip-hop vibe in flesh.
The two stars released Gin & Juice, a premium gin-based cocktail, last year. It instantly became a hit and even won multiple awards at different events.
It won four awards at the Los Angeles International Spirit Awards in the ready-to-drink category. It also won four awards at the San Francisco Ready-to-Drink competition.
Interested individuals can now enjoy this drink in a specific Still G.I.N. lounge along with many other cocktails.

About Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg's Still G.I.N.
The two iconic artists collaborated to release the drink for the first time last year. However, they have been collaborating in the music industry for decades and that's where the name of the drink comes from.
Snoop Dogg's 1994 Grammy nominated-song 'Gin & Juice' from his debut album, Doggystyle, produced by Dr. Dre is the inspiration for the name.
The cocktail comes in multiple flavors as well - Apricot, Citrus, Melon, and Passionfruit and is available online or at retail stores along with the gin itself.
