About the Box

the recipe for a good time

This season’s box is inspired by the Hawaiian word, huipu (hū'-ĭ-pū'), meaning “to mix or come together.” It includes everything you need to mix up a taste of Hawaii from home. Just add water and rum. Or, if you prefer, skip the alcohol for a delicious mocktail. And because we’ve found ourselves in a situation of isolation over these past months, this quarter’s kit also includes a way to connect virtually in August.

Seriously… How amazing does unwinding and talking story over a refreshing cocktail/mocktail sound right about now?

What’s inside:

  • SoHa Living Pineapple Glasses (Blue and Green): Enjoy all the aloha feels with these pineapple glasses from SoHa Living, founded by two sisters from Hawaii. One for you and one for your (co-quarantined) ohana. Hand wash only.

  • SoHa Living Cocktail Mix (Mai Tai or Hawaiian Hurricane): Mix up Hawaii's quintessential cocktail: the fruity Mai Tai. Not too sweet or overly flashy, this mix hits all the right marks with flavors of pineapple, lime and orange. Enjoy it on #MaiTaiMonday or #AlohaFriday or every day in between. Or cool off with a Hawaiian Hurricane. Pineapple, passion fruit and lime give tropical sweetness to this delicious cocktail. Just add water and your favorite liquor.

  • Kaj’s Products Li Hing Mui Powder: A staple in our pantry. We invite you to try a sprinkle of the li hing powder from this Oahu-based snack shop on virtually everything - candy, donuts, fruit (dried and fresh), shave ice, drinks (alcoholic and non-alcholic) - rim your glass with it or sprinkle it right on top. With a salty plum flavor, it complements a variety of sweets. A little goes a long way.

  • Bananas & Coconuts Candy: Handmade on Maui with locally grown coconuts and Hawaiian cane sugar. With such fine ingredients, you’ll be able to taste the difference!

  • Recipe Card: For mixing up good times.
