Cocktails: History, Fun Facts & How to Choose the Perfect One

The cocktail as an art form
Today, mixology is considered an art. Bartenders carefully blend flavors, aromas, and textures with the precision of a gourmet chef. Presentation is just as important as taste: a cocktail garnished with citrus slices, fresh herbs, or edible flowers is a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

How to choose the perfect cocktail for your event
  • If you have a sweet tooth
    Go for fruity and colorful cocktails like Piña ColadaDaiquiri, or Sex on the Beach. Perfect for a summery, dessert-like drink.
  • If you prefer something fresh and light
    Choose citrus- or herb-based drinks like MojitoGin & Tonic, or Aperol Spritz. Elegant, refreshing, and easy to sip all evening.
  • If you’d rather skip the alcohol
    Mocktails can be just as sophisticated. Try tropical fruit blends with herbs and sparkling water for a festive yet healthy option

Cocktails: more than just a drink
