Cocktails for the whole family to enjoy!

by Voulie Darviri, HR Trainee | Workathlon

Cocktails remind us of summer holidays, relaxation, carelessness, laughter. These beautiful feelings can be recaptured by making simple and tasty cocktails at home either when alone or with company of your beloved ones. One refreshing cocktail goes perfectly with a movie or a board – game or even any conversations at the balcony or yard. Also, there will not be any problem for families with children since the cocktails we suggest are tasty without alcohol too!
