Three Ways To Cool Off This Labor Day With Travellers Liquors

by Carolee Chanona

In Belize, the May 1 long weekend is the kick-off to a summer state of mind thanks to Labor Day. And if the only work you’re looking to do this Labor Day Weekend is mix-up drinks, then we’ve got you covered with Travellers Liquors Ltd. With Travellers Baron Gin, this one’s for the clean and crisp gin aficionados out there looking for a refresher to match the humidity! Two surefire ways to cool off are with Travellers’ two craft cocktail options mixed up on Kukumba Beach in Belize City, with the destination doubling as the third way to chill out too.

Let The Good Times Be-Gin

Make it a Travellers Moment like Yas Thalia in Baron Gin’s latest promo video by sipping toes-in-sand at Wata Hole, the beach bar on Kukumba Beach. Ask for Leona on Labor Day, the head bartender with more than a decade’s experience bartending; not to mention, the Travellers team says, “Her drinks speak for themselves.”

Alongside local singer and performer Yas Thalia, the two craft cocktails Kukumba Koolah and Baron Fizz double as both refreshing and elegant. After all, it’s easy to indulge in elegance with Travellers Liquors’ Baron Gin. For those of you unfamiliar with gin, it has a particular taste that can only be described as crisp. Baron Gin’s herbal notes and spicy finish enhances a drink without overpowering the other ingredients, and these two classic gin cocktails provide an option for every palate. The Baron Fizz is described as highlighting the gin, while the Kukumba Koolah utilizes it as a featured player.
