We’ve got cocktails in a bottle, mixes of mango, thyme, lemons and then some, in these colorful drinks.
While we’re waiting for or daydreaming about our summer getaway, we have these cocktails to cool us down while in the city. We know that these are only some of the many bars out there with mixes to toast the summer with, and you can find them on the Booky app, which is available on both Android and iPhone.
Circles Event Cafe – Makati Shangri La
In 2012, Makati Shangri La launched their Manila Sunshine cocktail to complement Depart of Tourism’s “It’s More Fun in the Philippines” campaign. The drink uses lambanog from Quezon as a base, with pineapple and mango, a tinge of triple sec and dark tanduay rum, garnished with lemon grass and a sliced pineapple.
