Though we’re technically not even halfway through December yet, with a recent transformation into a winter wonderland and a slew of new seasonal offerings, it’s safe to say that the holiday season is officially underway at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.
The same is true of Notch8 Restaurant and Bar. In addition to a new holiday afternoon tea service and an aesthetic transformation of its own, Notch8 also recently unveiled a new lineup of festive cocktails.
For the Winter Daiquiri, Notch8 creates a simple seasonal syrup with traditional winter ingredients like cinnamon, star anise, and clove, and then balances it out with a subtle dose of sweet and sour for a smooth sipping experience.
