As promised, this is my crazy one in a lifetime story of my Purple G haze🍹
We don't have a lot of telecom companies in Suriname, the one and only Surinamese telecommunication company is Telesur. For their marketing strategy, they often organize campagnes or fun challenges besides Social media advertising. In 2020, they organized a fun vacation cocktail challenge together with ATV (Algemene Televisie Verzorging is a television station in Suriname) and El Sabor de Lori, where people had to post a photo of their cocktail under the Telesur ad until 3 winners were declared.
To my surprise, I was called up to be one of the 3 winners to participate in the challenge, because I just entered for fun. Not expecting to win at all.😮
We had to make my cocktail live at El Sabor de Lori. One of the three contestants didn't show up for the recording, so it was just between another lady and me. I was completely gone, I was in my zone. My own cocktail creation “Purple G Haze” came in second place? I couldn't believe that one of my cocktail recipes turned out to be a win for me! This cocktail contains cranberry juice, Pisang Ambon, Ursus Vodka and Blue berry liquor, giving you a very berry sweet with a hint of sour type of taste!

Mixology is one of my many passions, though this is one I would really love to keep doing in the future. Having my own bar where I serve cocktails, mocktails, frappes and slushies, but also a place where you can go for a beauty makeover all in one building. So it's like a win win situation. Two passions blended into one. Unfortunately, I don't have a mixology certificate yet but I am planning to get one real soon.
Another important thing is a liquor license and of course the location. To start my crazy dream, I'll need to start somewhere....
serving drinks at parties or small events.
I am truly grateful to be #alive and experience all the good there is to offer!
✨Grace in her zone...
Shake, Shake, Shake senora😜
