Stop by the Lobby Bar to try either one of many brandy-based cocktails. Meet with friends or colleagues in the bar’s stylish décor.
Radisson Blu Vivace
Two delectable restaurants in Sandton are located at the hotel, providing convenience for guests who are looking for a good meal. The lounge & bar pours creative cocktails, beer and wine.
In case you want to try your hand in creating your own brandy-based cocktails at home; The Urban Brandy Cocktail Route have made their cocktail recipes available online for everyone. My absolute favourite drink the on the cocktail route has to be The Fynbos: Rooibos tea, ginger, honey and 10 year old KWV is just the perfect combination to make one amazing little drink.
Please do yourself a favour, and go to one of the venues above to try it.
