Butterflies and Rum

When the butterflies dance on the sugar cane it is time to harvest and make the rum.  These ones have landed in Shoreditch at the Angostura Butterfly House pop-up plantation and cocktail bar.

Open until Sunday, you can join Angostura's master distiller in tastings; be enchanted with beautiful butterflies and learn all about them from expert Luke Brown; all the while sipping on delicious sugar cane inspired cocktails made by the international cocktail champion Mike Tomasic and his team.  Details here.

Angostura Butterfly House, 31 New Inn Yard, Shoreditch EC2A 3EY.
Thursday 9 October to Sunday 12 October.

Pretty Butterflies

St Martin's Courtyard, a lovely shopping square in Covent Garden, has been decorated with butterflies and flowers, around the entrance, on the sides of the buildings and in circles through the entrances.  It looks very pretty, worth a visit.
