Celebratory Carajillo Bar Launches for Weddings at Velas Resorts
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (July 22, 2022) - Velas Resorts invites couples to toast their destination weddings with a new authentic service - a Carajillo Bar. Typical in Spain and several Latin American countries, and now fashionable in North America, the carajillo (said cara-hee-yo) is a hot coffee drink to which a hard liquor is added. For Velas Resorts' Carajillo Bar, flavors range from a traditional to more unique options with a Mexican touch like coconut, Mexican cinnamon infused Rumchata, pistachio, mint, chai, and gold. A s'mores version is adorned with Mexican chocolate, torched marshmallow and a dessert favorite, a churro. The offering is available at all six of the Velas Resorts properties, in Los Cabos, Riviera Maya, and Puerto Vallarta - Riviera Nayarit, for the welcome cocktail, rehearsal dinner or reception.
According to folklore, the carajillo dates back to when troops of Spanish descent combined coffee with rum to give them courage. In Spanish, courage is coraje and its diminutive form carajillo. Later changing to carajillo, the cocktail has become an integral part of restaurant culture in Mexico recently and the delicious Mexican version is truly a guest favorite at Velas Resorts.
Guests can enjoy the Carajillo Bar experience at any Velas Resort. Pricing starts at $1,000 based on an event of 50 people for a 1-hour interactive display. Available flavors are based on the property. For reservations or more information, call 1-888-407-4869, email [email protected] or visit http://velasresorts.com
