Hooch
If you like to lounge around with friends while enjoying a great drink, Hooch is the place to go. Designed as a friendly and cosy neighbourhood watering hole, Hooch is a proud Philippine-grown bar with international standards that serves quality drinks—from handcrafted cocktails, to craft beer, to single malts. On top of its distinction as the only bar in the country that crafts 104 signature cocktails and 52 classic cocktails, it is also known to throw great parties with bespoke events that focus on the craft of creating and enjoying great drinks. If it's your first visit, be sure to get a dose of Half Dead, an exhilarating mix of house rum blend, passion fruit, calamansi, grape fruit, and coconut sugar—a strong concoction that you won't soon forget (or not).
