Lavender

Super excited to be paired up with @fatdragonla for this year’s @familystylefest 💜 The idea for the Mala Mangonada came to light from a meeting we had with Ivy and Allen from Fat Dragon while trying their Sichuan Orange Chicken (so good btw, you gotta try it) and it dawned on us…can the Sichuan orange sauce and chili flakes make for a good chamoy substitute? Yes, the answer is yes. 🙂‍↔️ While developing it, this idea for a Lavender cream top milk tea slushie came to be, creating the collaborative drinks for the occasion.

Then of course came time to design the tee, which was a whole other collaborative runaround as Claudio was in Rome at the time we got the buzzer-beater call we’d be doing the fest. We got our friends and recent collaborators @notkaylynnkim & @christiannlg to execute the art as we all bounced ideas off each other. Originally we were going in the direction of those fat Akira Toriyama dragons he’d stick at the front or end of books for funsies (you know the ones) and then the idea of “what it’s based on The Very Hungry Caterpillar shape?” and our chunky little friend was born.

Truly couldn’t do it without the help of friends and those we can call family. We’ll see you all Saturday for slushies and make sure to grab a tee! The maroon color will only be available at the fest ✌🏼
