Capping off Filipino food month has never been more festive. Marco Polo Ortigas, Manila and Asian Dragon Magazine recently came together to launch a limited line of cocktails inspired by Destileria Limtuaco’s line of Philippine spirits. The intimate gathering included guests from the restaurant and food and beverage industry at VU’s Sky Bar and Lounge on Level 45 of the hotel.
The event introduced guests to the refreshing flavors of Manille Basil Smash, playfully tangy Manille Dalandan Margarita, the delightfully sultry Paradise Mojito, and the straight-forward Salamangkero. Guests had the opportunity to sample the lush libations as creatively prepared by the Sky Bar’s talented bartending crew. At the end of the evening, the crowd favorite among the four featured cocktails will be showcased at VU’s as “Potion of the Quarter.” The crowd selected the Manille Dalandan Margarita to take centerstage at VU’s in the coming weeks.
“Celebrating the flavors of the Philippines is one of our passions at the Marco Polo Ortigas, Manila. Our partnership with Asian Dragon Magazine and Destileria Limtuaco allows us to cast a meaningful spotlight on how versatile and world-class we can be as a gastronomic destination,” said Colin Healy, General Manager of the Marco Polo Ortigas, Manila. “Being named after the famed global explorer, Marco Polo Ortigas, Manila continues to strengthen the ‘spirit of discovery’ in all of us. We look forward to sharing even more of what it means to truly live and love the local experience in the future,” he added.
