Crafting cocktail programs, concepts, and experiences that bring bars to life

Sip the frequency

Teej & Tonic is my bartending brand where creativity and vision come to life, guided by balance, harmony, and intention.

“Teej” represents my identity behind the bar, my perspective, style, and approach to the craft

While “tonic” reflects the element that brings everything together.

It’s about taking an idea and refining it into something complete, where every detail has purpose and every drink feels cohesive, elevated, and memorable.

Cocktails are more than drinks, they’re experiences. I’m excited to share the passion, creativity, and inspiration behind the beverage programs and concepts I’ve developed throughout my career. From bold seasonal menus to signature creations, each cocktail reflects a commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and unforgettable guest experiences.

Everything has a frequency

Music, energy, people.

My cocktails are designed to match a vibe, not just a flavor.
