The Shady Grove Lounge, a popular cocktail hideaway in the Silverton Casino Hotel, transforms into a fantastical experience inspired by the famous story of “Alice in Wonderland.” The pop-up Mad Hatter’s Tea Party will open every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 5 to 10 p.m. until June 2nd.
Guests can immerse themselves in the enchanting world of Alice in Wonderland with exaggerated decor that transforms the space into a wonderland theme with enormous flowers and other colorful settings. The iconic Airstream, which is the focal point of the award-winning lounge, will also be decorated with the same wonderland theme.
Visitors can indulge in Mad Hatter’s specially crafted cocktail menu featuring a fanciful selection of “tea party” drinks, including:
- Tennessee Tea, made with Knob Creek bourbon, honey simple syrup and rose water
- Tea-garita, made with orange tango tea-infused sour mix, tequila and triple sec
- Mar-tea-ni, made with green tea vodka, cucumber simple syrup, yuzu sour mix and gold glitter
- Butterfly Gin and Tonic Tea, made with gin, tonic, elderberry liquor and butterfly tea
- Bee’s Knees, made with gin, lemon verbena tea, honey simple syrup and lemon juice
- Sunshine Tea, made with sweetened sunshine tea, vodka and passion fruit lemonade
Plus, the food menu is designed for sharing, including the Mad Hatter Tea Tree with:
- White cheddar-truffle popcorn
- Spiced ‘n’ salty mixed nuts
- Assortment of petit fours
- Jalapeño pub cheese
- Creamy Boursin and Brie
For an added dose of quirky fun, guests can take part in the Mad Hatter Puzzle Hunt, which is the perfect way to enjoy the pop-up bar with friends. The puzzle hunt includes six different puzzles that can be solved using clues found within the bar while visitors indulge in the themed cocktails on offer. Those who successfully solve all the puzzles will be entered into a draw to win the grand prize: a staycation at the Silverton Casino Lodge, along with dinner for two at Twin Creeks Steakhouse.
