SLH cocktails:
A taste of holidays


 

We opened a can of worms when we launched our New Year digital cocktail book back in December, featuring mouthwatering concoctions, courtesy of the world’s best hotels and resorts, to see us into 2021. With Spring on the horizon, we’ll be crafting another collection of mixed drinks for the season (out later this year) and have been inundated with recipes. Some of the ones we have received are so good – particularly ones from the members of Small Luxury Hotels of the World – we just couldn’t wait to try some of these SLH cocktails and just had to release them early…

We’ve chosen some of our favourite SLH cocktails – to give you a flavour of things to come – handpicked from destinations that we think are likely to be welcoming OutThere travellers later this year. Lest to say, holidays are so close, we can almost taste it!
