Escape the conventional & surrender to Refreshing Encounters with Hendrick’s Gin

July 12, 2022

A series of cool diversions await at Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade stand in the heart of Quezon City, starting with the long-awaited return of the Cucumber Hour.

This July, Hendrick’s Gin invites all to escape the conventional and surrender to Refreshing Encounters that await. Happening every Friday and Saturday from 15 – 30 July, gin lovers seeking a cool diversion can find delightfully peculiar refreshment at Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade stand pop-up at the After Hours Bar in the heart of Quezon City.

With every purchase of two Hendrick’s cocktails, find joy beyond reason in a complimentary Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade – a ravishingly refreshing concoction of Hendrick’s Gin, lemon juice, simple syrup and soda water, and garnished with a wheel of lemon and cucumber slices.

Cucumberists won’t want to miss the opening weekend! Hendrick’s Gin is bringing back its annual Cucumber Currency Exchange in celebration of the humble green fruit. Only on 15th and 16th July, After Hours Bar will be accepting the green of cucumber (any species permitted!) as legal tender, allowing you to exchange the remarkable fruit for a delectable Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade during the long-awaited Cucumber Hour. No cash, no cards, only cucumbers.

Charmaine Thio, Southeast Asia Brand Ambassador for Hendrick’s Gin explains: “Hendrick’s was born to inspire moments of delightful peculiarity. As we grapple with the mundanity of the new everyday, our series of Refreshing Encounters is a rallying call to break free from convention and seek out marvelously unexpected occasions that renew our curiosity and spark joy beyond reason.”

A most unusual gin, Hendrick’s distillation includes infusions of rose and cucumber, yielding an extraordinarily inviting gin that is a rare union of lightness and complexity. And there’s no better way to cap off a Hendrick’s cocktail than with a garnish cut from the same fruit that gives the gin its character. Whether a classic slice or a bold wedge, the addition of cucumber in any Hendrick’s cocktail is sure to not only please the eye but delight the palate as well.

The Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade stand pop-up at After Hours Bar is open every Friday and Saturday from 15 – 30 July. Every purchase of two Hendrick’s cocktails will entitle gin lovers to a complimentary glass of Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade and a Hendrick’s fan to keep you cool. The promotion is valid from 7 – 10 pm on 15, 16, 22, 23, 29 and 30 July. The Cucumber Currency Exchange will run on 15 and 16 July, from 6 – 9pm, and Hendrick’s Cucumber Lemonade redemptions are limited to one per customer.
