It’s a powerhouse triad of Belvedere vodka, Beefeater gin and Lillet Blanc.

And if you’re having trouble deciding between spirits, order the Boston Iced Tea Party, made with Tanqueray gin, Bacardi Superior rum, Absolut vodka, triple sec, and sweet and sour mix. Want to try something really different? Ask for a beertini or cockt-ale – mixed drinks infused with brews to create one-of-a-kind libations you can savour slowly.

For a cocktail that doubles as dessert, opt for the aptly-named Red Velvet Cake, a decadent infusion of limoncello, dark chocolate liqueur, crème de cacao white and strawberry puree.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The British Pimm’s Cup, the Aperol Spritz and the Coca-Cola and Kahlua-infused Hennessy Black Bull are staples at Solarium Bar. But if you prefer to unwind with something a little different, opt for one of the premium mixed drinks on the menu. The Kentucky Burgundy is a favourite among bourbon lovers. Made with Maker’s Mark, crème de cassis, fresh lime and strawberry mix, it strikes the perfect balance between spirit-forward, sweet and citrusy. Or keep things simple with an iconic Rob Roy, which spotlights Dewar’s White shaken with sweet vermouth. And if you like your drinks sweet and sour, go for the Washington Apple, a tart blend of Crown Royal, sour apple liqueur and cranberry juice.

PRO TIP

Don’t see your drink of choice on the menu? This is a full bar and the bartenders know their stuff – feel free to make a special drink request.

UNCORK ADVENTURE AND RAISE A GLASS

Whether it’s Malbec, Merlot, Riesling or Pinot Grigio, you’re sure to find all your beloved reds or whites at Vintages wine bar. From France to California, the wide world of wine is well represented through extensive partnerships with top winemakers, including some exclusive bottles you won't find anywhere else.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

Deciding what to drink at Vintages all depends on your own personal preferences. If you love a great Reisling, try a glass of light and fruity Dürnberg from Austria. If Sauvignon Blanc is more your speed, the menu at Vintages offers several great options from Marlborough, New Zealand. Those looking for something richer and more full-bodied should try Two Hands’ 'Gnarly Dudes' Shiraz from Barossa Valley, South Africa, or a glass of Cheval des Andes from Mendoza, Argentina – a balanced blend of Malbec grapes and Bordeaux varietals. Celebrating a special occasion or just want to dial up your evening with something bubbly? Choose between delicious prosecco from Veneto, cava from Catalonia, or brut and brut rosé from Champagne.

PRO TIP

Check the menu or ask your bartender about wine specials, offered daily.

Tequila lovers should definitely try the Royal Citrus Ritatini, made with Avion Silver, Cointreau and fresh lime or the Smokey Rita — a twist on the classic Marg that spotlights Del Maguey Vida Blanco mezcal, triple sec, orange juice and Margarita mix. If you’re more into whiskey or bourbon, opt for a classic Manhattan or a Rob Roy, both blended with just the right amount of sweet vermouth. And if you’re in the mood for something ginny, try the blood orange negroni – elevated with a small splash of blood orange, it’ll transport you straight to the storied bars of Florence, where this classic aperitif was born.
