Why Every Coloradan should be thank bees this summer

Rocky Mountain Sunshine Vodka: inspired by limoncello, Powered by bees.

Listen, we need to talk about someone buzz-worthy who's been working overtime this summer — and no, it's not your friend who insists on 5 a.m. hikes. We’re talking about the bees. Yes, the humble, bumbling, winged wonders of your Colorado garden who are doing way more for your life than you think.

Just like the bees, our Rocky Mountain Sunshine Vodka is all about that local love. Infused with natural citrus and just a kiss of Colorado raw honey, we’re out here toasting the tiny queens that make summer worth sipping.

1. Bees Are the Original Local Legends

While you're lounging in the sunshine with a chilled glass of vodka (hint: it’s ours), bees are out there doing the real labor of love — pollinating nearly every all-natural thing we pretend we grew ourselves. From your backyard mint to that sunflower patch, bees are the silent MVPs.

That’s why we keep it close to home. Our Rocky Mountain Vodka is crafted with inspiration from traditional limoncello — bright citrus notes and that sweet, smooth finish that comes from local ingredients. Including, yep, honey from Colorado hives.

2. That Garden You’re So Proud Of? Thank the Bees.

You didn’t grow that alone, babe. Those heirloom tomatoes? The lavender you keep trying to dry for aesthetic purposes? The juicy Colorado peaches you pretend are your personality for three months out of the year?

Yeah. That’s bees. You're just the cute assistant.

And just like your garden, we owe a lot to the bees too. That whisper of honey in every bottle of Sunshine Vodka is a nod to their hustle. You bring the garden party — we’ll bring the Rocky Mountain refreshment.

3. Bees Keep It All Natural, Just Like You Say You Do

No drama. No GMOs. No harsh chemicals. Just hard work and flower power. Bees are the original all natural queens — and so is our approach to crafting vodka. We keep it clean, citrus-forward, and smooth, with ingredients that actually come from the places we love (hey there, Colorado).

Because when you’re sipping Rocky Mountain Sunshine Vodka, you’re not just drinking a great cocktail. You’re tasting something that honors the bees, the blooms, and the bold flavors of the high country.

4. Sunshine? Bees Are Powered by It.

You know how your mood spikes the minute the sun hits your face in Telluride? That’s how bees feel all the time. They don’t just like sunshine — they run on it. Solar-powered superstars, if you will.

Same energy, different bottle. Every pour of Sunshine Vodka is made for golden hour — citrus-bright, subtly sweet, and infused with that unmistakable Rocky Mountain magic. Think limoncello, but mountain-kissed.

5. So, What Can You Do for the Bees?

Glad you asked, sweetheart. Here's your sassy summer checklist:

• Plant local wildflowers — especially bee-friendly ones like coneflower, bee balm, and sunflowers.

• Avoid pesticides — bees hate them, and honestly, so should you.

• Buy local honey — support your neighborhood hive hustlers (and the base of our favorite vodka).

• Let your garden get a little wild — bees prefer a boho, untamed aesthetic. So do we.

And maybe… just maybe… raise a glass of Rocky Mountain Vodka in their honor.

Final Buzz

This summer, while you're basking in the glory of that garden, sipping something citrusy, or just vibing with the all natural Colorado life you’re curating, raise a glass to the bees. They’re tiny. They’re fierce. And they’re out here making your summer sweeter, your garden prettier, and our vodka smoother.

So yes, you should thank the bees. Loudly. Daily. Preferably in a sun hat — and with a chilled glass of Rocky Mountain Sunshine Vodka in hand.
