During an appearance at BottleRock Napa Valley music festival alongside fellow rapper Warren G and _Top Chef_ Season 6 winner Michael Voltaggio on Saturday, Snoop broke the [Guinness World Record](http://time.com/money/5029264/a-couple-is-offering-50000-in-bitcoin-for-their-missing-guinness-world-record-holding-cats/) for biggest gin and juice by stirring up a drink that contained 180 bottles of gin, 154 bottles of apricot brandy and 38 jugs of orange juice. The D-O-Double-G then topped the giant boozy beverage off with a massive drinking straw, pink parasol, and a garnish of pineapple and melon on a sword. The full cocktail weighed in at more than 132 gallons, according to Guinness, officially cementing Snoop’s place in gin and juice history. > [](https://twitter.com/GWR/status/1001090490220122118) > [](https://twitter.com/GWR/status/1001123245330976769) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5294040/snoop-dogg-gin-and-juice-guinness-world-record/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5294040/snoop-dogg-gin-and-juice-guinness-world-record/"},"headline":"Snoop Dogg Broke the Guinness World Record for Biggest Gin and Juice Like You Knew He Could","datePublished":"2018-05-29T16:55:13.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:53:09.420Z","description":"\"Sippin' on gin and juice, laid back\"","url":"https://time.com/5294040/snoop-dogg-gin-and-juice-guinness-world-record/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Snoop Dogg"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbdc5afd3e683bb8c/698931babc6cfc7b963e6122/snoop-dogg-gin-juice.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbdc5afd3e683bb8c/698931babc6cfc7b963e6122/snoop-dogg-gin-juice.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Snoop-Dogg-Gin-Juice-Guinness-World-Record","caption":"Snoop Dogg breaks the Guiness World Record for largest paradise cocktail","creditText":"Tim Mosenfelder/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5294040/snoop-dogg-gin-and-juice-guinness-world-record/","name":"Snoop Dogg Broke the Guinness World Record for Biggest Gin and Juice Like You Knew He Could"}}]}] ```
