Bags have been packed for days and finally, five o’clock comes around and you’re off: countryside, lakeside, anything outside.
After inevitable hours in traffic and plenty of (or lack of) patience, you might like a drink upon arrival to celebrate this long-awaited moment. A Shooting Star under the stars with friends? A Wild Beauty whilst attempting to set up your tent? Or a rose-petal mocktail for a romantic ponton ride? We can think of great ideas for all your plans, from beginning to end (sigh) of two delightful weeks off.

Made with gin, ice cider and seasonal berries, this punch certainly highlights the most delicious local assets. The addition or star anise is perfectly on trend and adds a little dimension to the mix. Plus, it’s low in alcohol, so it would be perfect as an aperitif at a wedding or you know, weeknight holiday with friends at the cottage.

Because soaking in the beauty of our peaceful landscapes is peak relaxation, we went ahead and bottled the vibe in a cocktail. A handful of berries gives this mix a rosy glow—like your post‑hike cheeks—while showing off our delicious local fruits. With vodka, raspberry liqueur and lemon, it’s refreshingly balanced and easy to love. Like your cottage vacay.

Short of actually having 50 days off, take full advantage of your fortnight by treating yourself to a luxe cocktail. Almond liqueur (we predict a comeback, you heard it here first), citrus juice, diced apple, mint and other garden prowess come together in a small glass of contrasts and pleasure. No big deal.

No matter the reason to go alcohol-free, it’s always chic to plan an option. Or two. And how’s this for fancy: actual rose petals in your drink. You can even take it up a notch by freezing the petals in your ice cubes. The mix of pineapple and white cranberry juice with some rose syrup is exotic, complex and very refreshing. This too has wedding written all over it. But a holiday date night under the string lights will do.
Yes, this is another pink drink, but its flavour profile is completely different. And it includes rose syrup again, so your bottle won’t go to waste. Apple and pineapple juice, honey, a banana and frozen strawberries create an unctuous texture. And you don’t even have to wait for happy hour.
If you’re looking for more ideas, we have a long list of cocktails perfectly suited for the cottage, and even more suggestions inspired by the patio and barbecue. Because when on vacay, that's essentially what you to.
And for all your summer cocktail needs, don't forget to think local with our top-notch Origine Québec spirits.
