01. The Project DownloadPivot Projects pulled Sipland into the fold to build out a full bar experience, including bar design, menu design, menu curation and creating a take home gift.
Keeping the space and time of year in mind, Sipland wanted to infuse the light, bright, summer patio bar with whimsy and magic. We embraced a spring/summer color palette, perfectly complementing the vibrant hues of Estelle Colored Glassware.

03. Designing the Experience
At Sipland, we celebrate the details and obsess over the drinks. Inspired by the spirit of June and summer, we curated a playful menu of mocktails to celebrate the season, featuring drinks like a refreshing Mojito, a Faux French 75, and a crisp rosé. Inspired by Estelle Colored Glass’ stunning glassware and cake stands, we couldn’t resist including delicious cakes from Nordic Cooking on the menu. To complete the experience, we went all in on florals, collaborating with the talented team at Flowershop.
04. the eventOn a Thursday evening in June, a vibrant community of top female founders in tech, fashion, food, design, and beyond all gathered in the private home of Sipland’s cofounder, Molly Fienning, at the first-ever Sipland bar. We raised glasses of booze-free, seriously spirited drinks: Apolos Adaptogen Mojito made with Arise, Aplos’ nonalcoholic blend of citrus and botanicals; a Faux French 75 also made with Arise; and New York winery Wölffer Estate’s nonalcoholic rosé, Spring in a Bottle. Stephanie Summerson Hall, founder of the cult tableware company Estelle Colored Glass, took us through the inspiring journey behind her signature cake stand. We’re pleased to report that it is just as beautiful, as it is mouthwatering, when it’s covered in Nordic Cooking’s orange-ginger, lemon poppyseed, and Madagascar vanilla cakes. No party is complete without friends, and we were thrilled to co-host in such good company, including Klaviyo, Estelle Colored Glass, Avaline Wine, and Aplos.
