Drink with Purpose! Ascend Prime Steak & Sushi and Copperworks Distilling Co. Serve Up a Cocktail for a Cause

by | Feb 27, 2025

Ascend Prime Steak & Sushi has teamed up with Copperworks Distilling Co. to create a delicious and impactful drink that not only tastes good, but does good.

Meet the Blush & Bloom.

Crafted with lavender & pink peppercorn-infused Copperworks gin, Sakura vermouth, Luxardo bitter, Campari foam, and egg whites, the bold and beautifully balanced drink was created to support Rainier Athletes, a Bellevue-based non-profit which champions the unlimited possibility of youth in and out of the classroom by igniting connection through 1:1 mentorship, self-discovery, and access to opportunity.

Drink with Purpose | $2 from each drink sold will be donated

In partnership with AHG Cares, the philanthropic arm of Ascend Hospitality Group (AHG), Ascend’s parent company, Blush & Bloom is part of the group’s Community Cocktail initiative, which is dedicated to donating $1 from each sale of a featured dish or drink to benefit nonprofits. 

Throughout March and April, Rainier Athletes will receive $2 from every Blush & Bloom cocktail sold, as Copperworks Distilling Co. is matching Ascend’s $1 donation per drink.
