Just beyond the rocks is an oasis you couldn’t imagine. This geothermal spa located in a lava field near Grindavík on the Reykjanes Peninsula is a must visit. It’s a relaxing experience like no other with unbelievable scenery.
TIPS: Most claim this is a tourist trap but it is NOT to be missed. What is costly is the restaurant and gift shop. There are other geothermal pools in Iceland but none as spectacular as this.
What: Texas shaped lazy river and infinity pool.
Where: The Marriott Marquis in Houston, Texas
Why: Because Texas loves Texas shaped things. It’s a fact.
Could this pool be anymore fun?! This is probably the ultimate hotel pool we have ever swam in. Even if you’re not from Texas, you will love how cool this looks.
It is definitely a hotspot for Sunday Funday, bachelorette parties, and a great instagram photo op. Be sure to check it out at night with the city lights.
Sgroppino is an alcoholic mixed drink originating in Venice, Italy based on lemon sorbet and vodka, topped up with Italian sparkling Prosecco. Sgroppino can be served as a palate-cleansing aperitif or as a dessert drink after your meal.
The Sgroppino was served in aristocratic Venetian homes back in the 16th century. The Sgropin, as it’s called in the Venetian dialect, means to ‘untie’ such as to untie a little knot in ones stomach following a rather filling meal. It is also to cleanse the palate between the first and second courses.
Even though the drink originates in Italy, as you travel throughout the country you may have some difficulty finding the drink and even local restaurants knowing what it is. This is because further away from La Serenissima it is not a Sgroppino anymore, it is simply Sorbetto.
That tradition continues today, with a few minor tweaks to the centuries-old recipe. As the classic Sgroppino is made with lemon sorbetto, vodka and Prosecco sparkling wine, variations include strawberry, grapefruit or lavender, and sometimes the addition of limoncello.
Sweet and citrusy, this creamy lemon Prosecco cocktail is hands down the best dessert drink ever! Simple ingredients and no special skills required to make.
