While hotels, restaurants and bars may be closed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority is using the opportunity to showcase Antigua and Barbuda’s amazing mixologists and chefs, allowing them to share the recipes for some of their favourite cocktails and island dishes with fans and potential visitors via Facebook and Instagram live sessions on the Tourism Authority’s social media channels.
Cocktail lovers looking for an island-style happy hour cocktail recipe can tune into “In the Mix” which features mixologists on Thursdays, while those interested in whipping up an amazing home-cooked meal can join the “Wadadli Eats” cooking sessions on Fridays. Last week”s sessions featured the award-winning mixologist Timmy Thomas of Timmy Time Cocktails who served up a fruity cocktail utilising the famous English Harbour Antigua 5-year-old rum, and the sweet Antigua Black pineapple. A sea-to-table and farm-to-table inspired menu was what viewers were treated to when Chef Jacqueline Thomas of Villas at Sunset Lane, working with Chef Jeremiah Nathaniel of Galley Bay Resort and Spa showed them how to prepare a Tomato and Zucchini Tian, sautéed red snapper served in a white wine tomato sauce and a rich bread pudding, all from her commercial kitchen at The Villas at Sunset Lane.

ABOUT ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA
Antigua (pronounced An-tee”ga) and Barbuda (Bar-byew’da) is located in the heart of the Caribbean Sea. Voted the World Travel Awards 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 Caribbean’s Most Romantic Destination, the twin-island paradise offers visitors two uniquely distinct experiences, ideal temperatures year-round, a rich history, vibrant culture, exhilarating excursions, award-winning resorts, mouth-watering cuisine and 365 stunning pink and white-sand beaches – one for every day of the year. The largest of the Leeward Islands, Antigua comprises 108-square miles with rich history and spectacular topography that provides a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities. Nelson’s Dockyard, the only remaining example of a Georgian fort a listed UNESCO World Heritage site, is perhaps the most renowned landmark. Antigua’s tourism events calendar includes the prestigious Antigua Sailing Week, Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta, and the annual Antigua Carnival; known as the Caribbean’s Greatest Summer Festival. Barbuda, Antigua’s smaller sister island, is the ultimate celebrity hideaway. The island lies 27 miles north-east of Antigua and is just a 15-minute plane ride away. Barbuda is known for its untouched 17 mile stretch of pink sand beach and as the home of the largest Frigate Bird Sanctuary in the Western Hemisphere.
