It is easy to say that there are no shortage of things to do in London at Christmas time, the struggle comes in finding the needle in a hay stack that is not completely rammed and reasonably priced for quality.
At the top of the Montcalm hotel, the aviary boasts views of the shard, sky garden and contemporary buildings of the city of London. The closest comparison I have for the top of the Montcalm hotel, is if you have ever been to New York. Imagine the Rockefeller Centre with the view of the Empire State building in the background; the Montcalm is like this with the shard in the background!
'Elevate your festival celebrations and sip on sensational cocktails beneath the stars. Enjoy impressive views of London's iconic skyline.'
Me and Izzy got to try a collection of bespoke cocktails made with Icelandic Reyka Vodka. The first was a spicy apple cocktails with ginger beer and absinthe, definitely a cocktail with a kick and I appreciated the ginger sugar cube sweets on a cocktail stick. The second a rhubarb, aperol, marmalade and egg white cocktail with caramelised sugar; definitely one to surprise your senses. I do not normally like whisky so the third one pleasantly surprised me, featuring bourbon and whisky with creme de peaches and apricot puree. And lastly, my FAVOURITE, of which I shall not tell you the ingredients. Merely the wonderful name and the fact it is a warm cocktail called 'Coming Home For Christmas'.
