It sets the tone for the rest of the evening. Whether you are following the summer sun into the late afternoon, watching golden hour from your hotel terrace, or rinsing the salt from your sun-kissed skin, a refreshing drink is always the perfect way to say\u00a0<em>\u201cSalute!<\/em>\u201d to the day and welcome the evening.<\/p>\n<p>These days, we\u2019re looking to refresh our early evening drinks array with upmarket, flavourful beverages which make great additions to that gin &amp; tonic moment. \u201cThe aperitif category has grown globally by almost 30%, largely due to the desire for lower alcoholic beverages,\u201d explains Rowan Leibbrandt, founder of premium drinks company, Truman &amp; Orange.<\/p>\n<p>Supporting the trend which moves away from strong spirituous cocktails is the Mediterranean Collection curated by Truman and Orange. This collection of drinks introduces a new era of drinking \u2013 one that emphasises flavourful and intriguing drinks which can be enjoyed throughout the day. They are delicious on their own yet versatile enough to build on one another. This collection allows individuals to be transported to that perfect golden hour moment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-29508 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/Pampelle-HR-Large-e1677052594890-204x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"204\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/Pampelle-HR-Large-e1677052594890-204x400.jpg 204w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/Pampelle-HR-Large-e1677052594890-215x420.jpg 215w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/Pampelle-HR-Large-e1677052594890.jpg 332w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 204px) 100vw, 204px\" \/>A wonderful way to ease into a summer afternoon would be to sip on a Pampelle spritz. Created by mixing one-part\u00a0<strong>Pampelle<\/strong>, three-parts\u00a0<strong>Mionetto Prosecco<\/strong>\u00a0and a dash of soda water. This spritz will have you dreaming of the sun-drenched French island of Corsica, nestled in the Mediterranean Sea. Ruby-red grapefruit is the star of the show and is perfectly complimented by the honey, berry, and citrus flavours of Mionetto, the world\u2019s number one selling prosecco.<\/p>\n<p>When the sun begins to set, you may be inclined to reach for a classic G&amp;T. Only the finest tonic water blended with essential oils from herbs that have been gathered from the shores of the Mediterranean will do.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-29501 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/GINATO_POMPELMO_750ML_AW-Large-e1677052778726-213x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/GINATO_POMPELMO_750ML_AW-Large-e1677052778726-213x400.jpg 213w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/GINATO_POMPELMO_750ML_AW-Large-e1677052778726-224x420.jpg 224w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/GINATO_POMPELMO_750ML_AW-Large-e1677052778726.jpg 499w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/>Fever-Tree<\/strong>\u00a0has created exactly that, and it pairs beautifully with\u00a0<strong>Ginato<\/strong>\u00a0Clementino gin. Ginato embodies the spirit of Italy by expertly blending the finest Italian juniper berries, botanicals, and Pinot Grigio grapes, resulting in a collection of gins which exude the true essence of Italy. Mix one-part Ginato Clementino with three-parts Fever-Tree Mediterranean tonic. This simple serve will quickly become your summer drink of choice.<\/p>\n<p>Or, you could toast the day with a Sbagliato. \u201cWhat\u2019s that?\u201d you may ask. A wonderful drink invented by the Italians, \u201cSbagliato\u201d directly translates to mistake. Legend has it, that an Italian bartender creating a negroni, grabbed a bottle of prosecco instead of gin which resulted in a wonderful drink with the flavour depth of a negroni and the refreshing element of a spritz.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-29492\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large-259x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"259\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large-259x400.jpg 259w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large-663x1024.jpg 663w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large-696x1075.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large-272x420.jpg 272w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoRosso_750ml_SouthAfrica-Large.jpg 699w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-29491\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large-259x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"259\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large-259x400.jpg 259w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large-663x1024.jpg 663w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large-696x1075.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large-272x420.jpg 272w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/02\/BL_StarlinoArancione_750ml_SouthAfrica-1-Large.jpg 699w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To produce one of these marvellous creations, one would need to be introduced to the <strong>Hotel Starlino\u00a0<\/strong>range.
