Tuesday 13th May marked World Cocktail Day, and residents at The Belmont Care Home, part of the Sanders Senior Living Group, celebrated in style with a vibrant and interactive cocktail-making experience.
Local business owner James Taylor, founder of Keystones Cocktail Club, generously volunteered his time alongside two expert mixologists to guide residents through the art of crafting the perfect cocktail. The lively session saw residents donning aprons and cocktail shakers as they tried their hand at mixing classic concoctions such as the Mai Tai and the Old Fashioned, complete with eye-catching garnishes of burnt cinnamon sticks and dried oranges.
The fun wasn’t limited to residents – staff also joined in the fun, creating their own cocktail masterpieces under the expert guidance of the Keystones team.
Abi Hargreaves, Customer Relations Manager at The Belmont, shared her appreciation, commenting “Our thanks to James and the Keystones Cocktail Club staff for joining forces with us to create a fabulously different and entertaining afternoon to mark World Cocktail Day for our wonderful residents. It is always great to collaborate with other businesses within the community and to bring new and exciting events and activities to The Belmont.”
The event was a huge success, full of laughter, learning, and a shared sense of celebration, showcasing the home’s ongoing commitment to enriching the lives of its residents through unique and engaging experiences.
