Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s liquor brand, Still G.I.N, is announcing a collaboration with a very special guest.

On Tuesday, Nov. 18, the gin brand announced it would be partnering with Snoop’s longtime collaborator Martha Stewart, so that she can offer cocktail recipes and “entertaining expertise” to fans of the liquor.

In a statement, Stewart described herself as a “late convert” to the gin — and she credits Still G.I.N. with changing how she utilizes the liquor in her recipes.

“…Stewart credits Still G.I.N. By Dre and Snoop with transforming her perspective on gin,” a press release from the brand states. “The ultra-premium spirit’s exceptional drinkability and mixability inspired her to experiment extensively, developing creative cocktail recipes that showcase the gin’s versatility across seasons and occasions.”

“I think gin has to have a superior flavor. It has to be smooth and not intrusive on your senses. Still G.I.N. is so flavorful and so aromatic,” she shared. “It’s my go-to spirit now and I use it in cocktails where I might have used something else before. It’s just that versatile and good.”

Stewart also weighed in on what Snoop has taught her about the spirit.

“He really talks a lot about gin, so you kind of pick up things here and there,” she tells PEOPLE. “What I’ve learned is how incredibly adaptable Still G.I.N. is. It works in every cocktail I make now, both classic and contemporary. That’s been the revelation.”

On Tuesday, Stewart shared the first of her brand-new cocktail recipes for fans of the gin, and the brand said that her recipes will be perfect for any occasion — including “sophisticated outdoor entertaining to festive holiday gatherings and intimate parties throughout the year.”

Her first-ever recipe is dubbed the “Water Melly,” an “elevated take” on gin and juice that features fresh watermelon juice, gin, lime juice, cucumber bitters, and cane syrup.

Snoop and Stewart’s friendship has flourished since meeting on Stewart’s cooking show back in 2008.

After their “first few experiences of hanging out,” they started to put their business minds together. “She presents an opportunity, we present it to a network and we make some things happen,” he previously told PEOPLE, explaining how Stewart helped Snoop get a Skechers partnership and how he got her involved in his wine brand.

This gin marks only the second product from the Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s beverage brand, after they launched their first-ever ready-to-drink cocktail, Gin & Juice By Dre, in October 2024.

The brand has made headlines in the past for its high-production marketing. In December 2024, Dre and Snoop released a hyper-realistic Still G.I.N. ad featuring late music legends Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. thanks to AI technology.

The commercial saw the group of four sitting in a booth at an upscale restaurant having a conversation over glasses of Still G.I.N.

In April, the producer and rapper are announced that they were mixing music history with a new era of nightlife by opening the first Still G.I.N. Lounge By Dre and Snoop opening in downtown Nashville.

The new partnership launched in a restored four-level building that houses Nashville Live! The venue boasts a curated rotations of DJs, live performances and playlists inspired by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg at the all-new lounge, “which promises to bring the best of hip-hop, R&B and funk, setting the tone for unforgettable nights.”
