After 30 years of “sipping on gin and juice,” Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are coming together again for a collaboration that transcends music. This month, the two West Coast rappers launched a cocktail line named for their 1994 song.

“I was hoping it was that album Snoops has been talking about for years, but it’s a canned drink. Ok,” one user responded on X, formerly known as Twitter.
