To celebrate Pride Month while supporting a local LGBTQ organization, The Shannon Rose Irish Pub, with locations in Clifton, NJ, and Ramsey, NJ, is featuring a new, special Pride Month cocktail throughout June.

Named “Sally’s Go-Go Juice”, this specialty cocktail is made from New York Vodka, fresh lemon juice, passion tea syrup, club soda, and Peychaud’s Bitters. The drink is then garnished with an edible flower and a miniature Pride flag.

“The Shannon Rose is all about community,” said Ed Doherty (he/him/his), Chairman, and CEO of Doherty Enterprises who own The Shannon Rose. “And this month, The Shannon Rose is thrilled to celebrate all the colors of the rainbow – not just green – as we celebrate with the LGBTQ community and provide support to our friends at the Pride Center of New Jersey.”

In an effort to support the LGBTQ community, The Shannon Rose will donate a portion of the specialty cocktail proceeds to the Pride Center of New Jersey, a Gay & lesbian organization in Highland Park, New Jersey dedicated to the health and well-being of all individuals in the LGBTQ New Jersey community.

“Our mission at Pride Center of New Jersey is to provide a safe and welcoming space for all individuals who identify as LGBTQ+, where they can find support, community, and educational resources,” said Rick Kavin (he/him/his), the President of Pride Center of New Jersey. “It’s so exciting when we can partner with a local business like The Shannon Rose and make an impact here for New Jersey’s LGBTQ+ community, and we are grateful to the team at The Shannon Rose for supporting the work of the Pride Center.”

“Sally’s Go-Go Juice” will be available from June 1st through June 30th at the restaurants Clifton, NJ, and Ramsey, NJ locations. The Shannon Rose Irish Pub in Clifton is located at 98 Kingsland Road. And The Shannon Rose Irish Pub in Ramsey is located at 1200 New Jersey Rte. 17.
