What’s better than a cocktail on the beach? Two cocktails on the beach.

And the only thing better than that is sipping those cocktails on the beach at Mexico’s Grand Velas resort.

Because only at this all-inclusive playground near Playa Del Carmen will your beach butler bring you this potent pair: The Riviera Maya, made with rum, vodka, melon liqueur, orange juice and Grenadine. And the cerulean Toucan, which has the same ingredients but subs blue Curaçao for melon liqueur, and is equally as refreshing.

Thirsty now? Hop a flight to Mexico and taste them for yourself. Or just watch this video and pretend you did.
