In anticipation of the annual Smirnoff Dream Weekend in Negril this Emancipation weekend, title sponsor Smirnoff is promising patrons a fantastic array of drinks.

A brand that has become a party staple in Jamaica, Smirnoff will serve as the base of specially made drink mixes that should, no doubt, elevate the euphoria surrounding the party weekend.

To provide a bit of a teaser, Barcode, which will be providing top-class bar services, served up some cocktail mixes for the Food team recently. The creations were showed off at Club Privilege in New Kingston.

The team was also kind enough to share its drink recipes which you can try out at home.
