Summertime Caribbean Cocktails 2020!!


While we are socially distancing and refraining ourselves from travelling down to the tropics for vacations, we'd like to remind you that travelling is mare a state of mind. Just as we think to relax our mind and body in the Caribbean air at the paradise of islands by the sea, we strive to get away from those imperative rules and routine chores. What could be a better moment than the present, to capitalize on this newly accustomed reality of our lives within our homes. We accept it with an open heart! So what if we can't go out, we can surely bring that Tropical feel at home. Though the thought of visiting Caribbean thrills us, self-quarantine is the need of time. So why not pretend we're in The Bahamas or Barbados instead and allow yourselves to mentally float way to the arrivals gate of the Caribbean beaches!
