Perfect "fore" golf enthusiasts and cocktail connoisseurs alike, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts is inviting guests to swing into summer with a new line-up of signature cocktails inspired by the hotel company's many golf courses.

The new list of exclusive cocktails, which owe their birth to the signature holes, includes the Mayakoba Colada, an exotic concoction blended to reflect the unique attributes of The Reef, a razor thin Par 3 at the Greg Norman designed El Camaleón at the Fairmont Mayakoba. Certain to be another favorite will be the Devil's Spruce, an elusive blend of Belvedere Cytrus, freshly squeezed lime juice, mint and juniper, which has been mixed-up to honor The Fairmont Banff Springs' Devil's Cauldron, the picturesque 4th hole on the resort's Stanley Thompson designed course.

From mid-May to the end of October, guests will have an opportunity to sample their favorites from the new golf inspired cocktail menu that also includes libations like the Sea Breeze Cosmo, Cleopatra, Hole in One and the Turnberry Mojito.

Part of a larger spirits program being undertaken by the brand, aimed at restoring the art of the cocktail, the new menu, which features the creative flavors from Moët Hennessy USA and Grand Marnier, blends premium spirits with the freshest ingredients available.
