SILVER SCREEN SIPS
only stars in the movies. For decades now, we have seen many movies where a beverage has a prominent –if not starring- role. These concoctions were the “building blocks” of our generation’s drinking culture. Just like our famous actors and actresses, these cocktails changed trends through time. From the “French 75” in the movie “Casablanca”, “Red Eye” in “Cocktail”, “Martini” in “James Bond”, “Cosmopolitan” in “Sex And The City” or a “White Russian” in “The Big Lebowski”, they have all laid ground to changes in society’s method of consuming beverage, whether it be at home, with friends or out at a bar. At the Burj Al Arab we want to pay homage to these acclaimed cocktails not only by mentioning them, but by putting our very own touch on a piece of history. Our aim is to awaken your senses by using these timeless classics to ensure you are given a Skyview Bar Movie Star treatment
