On May 13, World Cocktail Day is celebrated, a date dedicated to the creativity, technique, and talent of those who turn drinks into experiences. The origin of this celebration dates back to 1806, the year in which the first official definition of the word \u201ccocktail\u201d was published in an American newspaper. Later, during Prohibition in the United States, cocktails became even more popular, helping to mask the taste of lower-quality spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Lisbon has become one of the most exciting European cities for discovering signature cocktails. From hidden speakeasies and rooftops to historic venues and creatively themed bars, there are more and more places elevating the simple act of \u201chaving a drink\u201d into a whole new experience. Every area of the city has its own unique energy \u2014 and they all deserve a toast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you are staying at Luzeiros Suites, even better: its central location in Lisbon allows you to easily explore different areas of the city and comfortably return after a great night out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
