Gindependence Day Summer 2016 Media Launch

Recently, I suddenly felt the urge to stay in our refrigerator and never come out. Just like that it was a sign that summer is officially around the corner. So how are you planning to spend yours?


Usually I'd spend mine out of town where I could enjoy the beach and catch up with my relatives during a drinking session. I prefer drinking beer but I'm always outnumbered by my younger cousins who love to drink their special GSM Blue mix among anything else. This was a surprise to me since I've always thought that gins aren't that appealing to the young since it is a bit cheap. Now when I attended the Gindependence Day Summer 2016 Launch, that's where I discovered that the possibilities of cocktail drinks that you could do with it are endless! I'll share some of those concoctions in just a bit, just read on!


So you might be wondering what is the Gindependence Day all about? This is a celebration held at URBN Timog to mark the brand's emancipation from the old and a welcoming of the new. As the market leader in the gin category, Ginebra San Miguel is paving the way for a new mix of gin culture in the Philippines. Standing on its success and popularity in the mass market, the GSMI Gin Brands now plan to reach even greater heights by catering to more premium groups. With a lineup of never-before done activities, GSMI Gin brands will connect with a wider audience and improve the gin experience as a whole.




As a preview, here are some of the fun things that happened during the Gindependence Day Media Launch...

We got to play a game where you could virtually surf, paraglide and more!

Got to shoot some hoops! The top scorers were rewarded with special Ginebra merchandises!

Personally met some of Barangay Ginebra's basketball players.

Learned how to do simple bar tricks that will surely impress your friends!

Enjoyed some OPM music from Callalily and Banda ni Kleggy.

Chilled for a while at The Black Fleet. It's a luxurious party bus that you could throw parties at.

So, what can you exactly do with a bottle of GSM Blue?
Here are some concotions that you might want to try out with your barkada!



I don't know if you could read this one but I highly suggest trying out the Twisted Red Snapper. Picture this: Tomato Juice and Bacon on your gin. So crazy! I know it's not for everyone but if you're feeling adventurous, I say go for it!
