LUIS IN FIRST-EVER ONLINE MIXOLOGY SERIES

-

Ginebra San Miguel has launched recently its first-ever online series on YouTube with Luis Manzano as host. G-Mix Nation, a collaborat­ion between Luis and Ginebra San Miguel Inc., is an online mixology series that teaches viewers how to be their own bartender at home while raising appreciati­on for the art of cocktail making.

“There’s something magical about being a bartender. When you’re out with friends and someone’s mixing a drink, you can’t help but look,” says Manzano, who relived his bartending and flairtendi­ng days while doing the online mixology series.

To show that anyone can mix, Manzano is joined in the online series by a mix of celebritie­s and online influencer­s. As a new worldwide trend of enjoying drinks called the “home bar”— made up of a cocktail shaker, stirrer, jigger, cocktail recipes, and a bottle each of the classic Ginebra San Miguel Kuwatro Kantos, GSM Blue Light Gin and GSM Premium Gin—has emerged, Ginebra San Miguel also launched the G-Mix Nation Home Bar Kit, now available at select supermarke­ts nationwide and online store LazMart.

Like and subscribe to the G-Mix Nation YouTube channel to catch the latest episodes of the G-Mix Nation online mixology series out every Friday.
