SOL Southwest Kitchen Announces New Kitchen Karma Menu Benefiting First Tee – Greater Charleston

Charleston, South Carolina’s popular dining destination, SOL Southwest Kitchen, has announced a brand new Kitchen Karma menu that will support Charleston’s local youth development programs. This initiative will run from May 1 to June 12, with a particular focus on benefiting First Tee – Greater Charleston.

Kitchen Karma Specials

The new Kitchen Karma menu features delectable delights such as a Spicy Citrus Peach Margarita, Peach by the Beach Cocktail, Under the Bourbon Sun Cocktail, Oaxacan Sunset Cocktail, Peach Nojito Mocktail, and Drunken Beef Nachos. Each of these limited-time specials takes a culinary journey through Southwestern flavors, creatively incorporating peaches into signature drinks and dishes.

For every Kitchen Karma item sold, SOL’s Mt. Pleasant and Summerville locations will donate $1 to programs under First Tee – Greater Charleston. These initiatives cater to youth access to golf and interpersonal skill-building at seven golf courses, 41 schools, and numerous community centers spread across Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester counties.

SOL’s Community Engagement

Since its inception in 2013, SOL’s Kitchen Karma has raised nearly $100,000 for various local causes, reinstating SOL’s commitment to community engagement and support. “It has been a way for us to give back,” says restaurant owner David Clark. He adds, “Our only requirement when choosing a charitable organization is that the funds raised stay local. First Tee – Greater Charleston is a perfect partner because they provide character-building programs for thousands of children each year right here in Charleston.” Notably, these programs not only teach golf but offer empowering leadership skills that will shape the community’s future.
