It\u2019s pretty hard not to enjoy a rum cocktail while reclining on some comfy outdoor seating and listening to summertime tunes in East London.You\u2019d have to be pretty miserable, or have just walked in someone revealing the latest deaths on that GOT you haven\u2019t watched yet. And when it\u2019s Sailor Jerry<\/a><\/strong> spiced rum, and the view from your seat is a 360 degree panoramic of the London skyline, then it\u2019s darn near impossible. Add to that a sizzling BBQ comprised of mouth-watering meaty treats that incorporate Sailor Jerry into the sauces, and we were set up for a perfect weekend.<\/p>\n

\"Visions<\/p>\n

Social and Cocktail<\/strong><\/a> spent last Saturday getting down to some funky tunes at Visions festival. And while yes, we do know that sounds like something a really un-cool uncle would say, we definitely knew the place to be \u2013 at the Sailor Jerry<\/strong> rooftop party. We snacked on a pulled pork bap (snacked = demolished entire thing in three mouthfuls), drank a tasty cocktail of Sailor Jerry<\/strong>, cola and beer (it works), and enjoyed the arm-wrestling championships that gave the lads a chance to prove their strength. Sadly we hadn’t allowed our stubble to reach the length needed for a wet shave, but this service was available, and a specially commissioned piece of artwork was unveiled showing our favourite pin-up girl in glorious neon naughtiness. \u00a0 Proof again that, whatever port Sailor Jerry<\/strong> calls at, there is bound to be a party.<\/p>\n

AND THIS WEEKEND\u2026<\/strong> Wilderness Awaits!<\/strong><\/p>\n

From party-hard pirates to a more chilled vibe, as we head over to Wilderness Festival<\/strong> <\/a>near Oxfordshire. This glorious celebration of music, art and food is the perfect place to hear some great bands (London Grammar and Sam Smith are both playing), while also trying morsels from some of the world\u2019s best chefs, including Angela Hartnett and Mark Hix. We\u2019re especially excited about seeing what Monkey Shoulder<\/strong> <\/a>scotch and Martin Miller\u2019s Gin<\/strong> <\/a>serve up \u2013 both are official drinks of the festival, and we\u2019ll be trying out some of their cocktail creations. Warm cider and flat beer? We don\u2019t think so!<\/p>\n
