Warm up with a sweater or with some spirits; although we love both we highly recommend the latter. Welcoming the fall and winter months means cozying up with seasonal cocktails, and Eight Lounge at Resorts World Las Vegas makes all merry and bright with the release of eight new libations.
The recipes all call for sweet, spiced, seasonal flavors, with twists on classic recipes like the seasonal tequila Old-Fashioned. The reimagined cocktail mixes Código reposado tequila, St. George spiced pear liqueur, demerara syrup, walnut bitters and fig and fennel bitters, resulting in a deep flavoring of sweet and spice. While summer months are perfect for tiki cocktails, for cooler months, Eight Lounge puts a spin on the classic with the Ninth Island Jungle, a mix of Bacardi Reserva Ocho rum, Campari, simple syrup, pineapple and lime juices and the nutty, fall flavoring of Trader Vic’s macadamia nut liqueur. Even the margarita gets a spin in The Holiday Margarita, a mix of Pátron Cristalino tequila, cranberry juice, house-made cranberry-cinnamon syrup and Solerno blood orange liqueur.
While sipping on one of Eight’s eight new cocktails, don’t forget that the lounge offers guests the chance to pair any cocktail with a cigar. Whether an aficionado or novice, the staff of Eight Lounge are well-versed in matching cigar and cocktail flavors and have a huge selection of brands on hand from a well-stocked humidor. We suggest lighting one up and sipping one down outside on Eight’s chic patio.
