Emma Say ‘bonjour’ to the French Mule with Bardinet Brandy’s new cocktail menu and French Café Experience
Bardinet Brandy is bringing a delicious new menu of French Mule cocktails to UK drinkers this summer, helping the nation add some French flair to their summer soireés!
Inspired by some of France’s most famous locations – Paris, Provence and the French Riviera – the new serves are a showcase for Bardinet’s rich, smooth spirit and the classic mule mixer ginger beer, alongside some of the freshest flavours of summer.
The serves will be launched at Bardinet’s striking new pop-up French-style café, ‘Chez Bardinet’ which will tour some of the UK’s leading food and drink events this year and encourage attendees to say ‘au revoir’ to the same old summer drinks.
The new nationwide ‘Chez Bardinet’ campaign will kick-off at the Great British Food Festival at Wentworth Woodhouse on 16th and 17th August, where the bespoke attraction will welcome visitors in true French style.
Authentic café styling, street artists and live music will set the scene, whilst French speaking bartenders will be on hand to host Bardinet French Mule Masterclasses and help visitors place their cocktail orders… in perfect French!
Crafted in France for more than a century Bardinet is one of the UK’s best-selling brandies. Janette Deed, the brand’s UK Marketing Manager explains: ‘Bardinet brandy is crafted with French passion, and it is this passion and ‘joi de vivre’ that we wanted to bring to life through our new Chez Bardinet campaign. French café culture is based on socialising, relaxing and of course, enjoying delicious French fayre, so our pop-up has been designed with that in mind. Bardinet brandy tastes delicious in a whole host of summer cocktails and we are really looking forwarding to introducing drinkers to our latest serves at forthcoming events.’
