Healthy drinking at Opus Hotel

I’m heading off on vacation for a couple of weeks, so inevitably my minds turned to cocktails.

Apparently, I can enjoy my holiday cocktail-ing guilt free now, according to Brad Stanton, Opus Vancouver’s beverage manager extraordinaire. Cocktails have turned healthy? He recently introduced me to the delightfully appealing concept of cocktails as healthy elixirs. Take a peek at Brad’s video where you’ll be introduced to his talent for concocting nutritious, delicious drinks. Next time you’re nursing a cold or fighting the flu, give yourself permission to pour yourself a stiff drink. Stanton’s orders.

Brad works his cocktail magic every Monday to Friday from 4 to 7 p.m. during Happy Hour at Elixir. Make sure you stop by.

For our Montreal friends, you'll be in on the healthy cocktail action soon. Brad's busy creating the cocktail menu at Koko Restaurant + Bar, opening May 10 in Montreal.

Speaking of Koko, make sure to keep checking our Koko Facebook page, as well as the Koko website, where we'll keep you up-to-date with the latest developments as we approach our grand opening.

As for the latest happenings in Vancouver - we have some fantastic events in store for you, including a new Live Art series starting on the last Thursday of every month. Keep up with all our events on the Opus Bar web site and the Opus Facebook page and as always, you can reach me with your comments here on my blog, and soon (very soon!) on my very own Facebook page.
