The Eric Von Zipper

Hey you wild surfers and beach bums, clear the boardwalk! 🏍️☀️

The Rats and Mice are crashing this beach party, and we’re doing it with Eric Von Zipper style. If you’re gonna ride with the toughest motorcycle club to ever park on the sand, you need a drink that looks as mean as a leather jacket but sips like a sunny day in Malibu.

Enter our custom Von Zipper blend. We started with a heavy foundation of Dented Brick Vodka—because every good rebel needs a solid foundation—and mixed it up with a crisp, refreshing splash of fresh lemon and lime juice. Top it off with a bubbly wave of Sprite to keep things swinging, and then comes the real kicker: a slow float of dark blackberry liqueur that creates the ultimate, sweet “oil slick” right on top.

It’s sweet, it’s tart, it’s bubbly, and it looks exactly like something that just dripped off a vintage chopper. Just remember Von Zipper’s golden rule: “When Eric Von Zipper speaks… everybody listens!”

Take a sip, put on your shades, and let’s stir up some trouble by the shore. 🌊🕶️
