DOT wants drinking to be more fun in PH with 'Manila sunshine'

Cheers! Manila may soon be known for more than just its traffic; thanks to 'Manila Sunshine', a signature cocktail "that will define the city of Manila."

Like the city itself, Manila Sunshine is a combination of the country's best ingredients.

"What makes Manila Sunshine distinctly Filipino is the base of lambanog, or coconut wine. This drink is mostly produced in the province of Quezon, which is known to be the biggest producer of lambanog; the process of making and appreciation of which has been a part of the Filipino tradition for centuries," Makati Shangri-La, the hotel that came up with it said.

Tourism Secretary Ramon Jimenez Jr. said he was "very pleased that the Manila Sunshine drink is finally a reality." He said the Department of Tourism had approached the hotel to create and name a drink after Manila.

On top of the lambanog base are flavors of pineapple and mango, a hint of orange from triple sec, and the spice of Tanduay dark rum. The drink is also garnished with tanglad, or lemon grass, and a pineapple slice.

Makati Shangri-La also offers a non-alcoholic version, the Virgin Manila Sunshine. The drinks were launched at the hotel's Circles Event Café and is available at Makati Shangri-La’s bars.

The DOT has been promoting the Philippines as a top tourism destination. It has launched social media and international television campaigns to promote tourism to the Philippines.

According to DOT figures, more than 1.1 million tourists arrived from January to March, a 16-percent increase from last year's tourist arrivals.

"From this record, we have now achieved 25 percent of our international visitor target of 4.6 million for this year," Jimenez said when the figures were announced.
He said the increased arrivals show "the world is now starting to see that ‘It’s More Fun in the Philippines’ is not just a bunch of words on a streamer."..
