To mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, the Marco Polo Hotels in Hong Kong and the Philippines will join forces to offer #Pinktober dining experiences from 11 to 31 October 2022. A part of the proceeds is pledged to the Hong Kong Hereditary Breast Cancer Family Registry, The Medical City in Manila, and ICanServe Foundation’s Cebu Chapter to benefit the charities’ psychosocial counseling for families and breast cancer research.
The #Pinktober activations include two designated pink beverages served at the hotels. They are “Pink Highball” and “Pink Osmanthus Sour”. The Pink Highball mocktail is a cold-brewed oolong tea infused with apple juice and peach purée. Finished with a splash of grapefruit juice, the fruity and refreshing concoction is both sweet and tangy. For cocktail lovers, Pink Osmanthus Sour is a blend of aromatic Osmanthus flowers and Aperol with uplifting citrus notes and a hint of bitterness. The beverages are available in:
