Cheers to that
A unique spin on the classic espresso martini: a Pecan Espresso Martini.
In May, Embassy Suites by Hilton celebrated its 40 year anniversary, and as a way to mark the milestone all locations in the United States offered two limited time only beverages (one alcoholic and one non-alcoholic) designed by team members. All Embassy Suites by Hilton team members had the chance to flex their creative talent and craft a signature cocktail or spirit-free mocktail that embodies the brand’s signature hospitality and dedicated service. Team members submitted an array of beverages that aimed to excite taste buds while commemorating the brand’s anniversary. In the end, two drink recipes - one alcoholic and one non-alcoholic - were chosen. Harrison Hobbs, who has tended bar at Rhum Bar at Embassy Suites by Hilton St. Augustine Beach Oceanfront Resort designed the winning cocktail, the La Flor (a botanical gin-based drink inspired by nature’s beauty featuring a floral gin, enhanced with citrus and elderflower).
During a pop up experience, attendees sipped on cocktails while learning more about each of Hilton's various brands. The bar that was setup during the pop up experience displayed all of the day's libations: an Aperol Spritz; The Sky High (gin, peach schnapps, Creme de Violette, lemon juice, and egg white); The Farmer (apple juice, lime juice, and cinnamon clove anise syrup); and La Fresquita (mezcal, Campari, pineapple juice, tahini, lime juice, hibiscus syrup, and tonic water).
The Lavender Haze featured citadelle jardin gin, house-made lavender infused limoncello, lemon, cherry bitters, and was garnished with dried flower petals.
