Fort Lauderdale, get ready to raise a glass and some good. Ukiah Japanese Smokehouse—your new Riverfront hot spot for smoky bites and bold flavor—is serving up more than just killer cocktails this summer. Starting July 2nd, the restaurant launches its Giving2Sips program: a feel-good, taste-better initiative that proves you really can drink for a cause.
Here’s how it works: all month long, every time you order the cheekily named Pear Necessities—a vibrant mix of Mijenta Blanco Tequila, Giffard Lychee, prickly pear purée, chili rub agave, and a mezcal rinse—$2 goes straight to Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation. That’s right: one delicious sip for you, and a whole lot of support for the kids who need it most.
So why not Give2Sips about pediatric care? Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital is one of South Florida’s top-ranked medical centers for children, offering over 50 specialty programs for everything from sniffles to serious conditions—all in a warm, kid-friendly environment that puts families first.
Ukiah, founded by the award-winning team behind its Asheville, NC original, is no stranger to blending cultures and shaking things up—think Japanese flavors, American BBQ attitude, and cocktails with a conscience. With its wood-fired dishes, sleek design, and cocktail bar that’s already making waves, this is the place to eat, drink, and do some good while you’re at it.
So go ahead. Order another round. Tell your friends. Post a boomerang. Because when you Give2Sips at Ukiah, it’s not just happy hour—it’s hope hour. For more information about UKIAH Japanese Steakhouse, please visit: ukiahrestaurant.com
