Revolución de Cuba to give away free cocktails in exchange for Easter egg donations

Newcastle rum bar Revolución de Cuba is giving away free chocolate-based cocktails, in exchange for Easter egg donations. 

The Cuban-inspired cocktail bar, which is located on Cloth Market, launched the initiative as a way to support families in need this Easter.

Revolución de Cuba have created a mouth-watering chocolate cocktail for Easter, named the Bounty Rumtini. Those who donate Easter eggs to the bar will receive a Bounty Rumtini on the house as a thank you for their donation. 

The limited edition cocktail is made using a blend of Mozart Chocolate Liqueur and Malibu coconut rum to give the taste of a Bounty chocolate bar.

The charity campaign will run until Saturday, March 23, with all Easter eggs being donated to food banks as part of The Trussell Trust network, which operates across the city.

This will ensure that families across Newcastle will be able to enjoy Easter treats over the four-day weekend, who may have not been able to due to financial struggles.

Revolución de Cuba’s Alex McMillan said: “The Easter weekend is a special time to spend with friends and family. We hope that our ‘eggs-change’ campaign with The Trussell Trust charity will spread joy and kindness amongst our local communities in the run up to Easter - shining a spotlight on Cuban kindness and hopefully putting smiles on lots and lots of little faces.”

Revolución de Cuba will also be hosting an adults’ only Easter Egg hunt, where prize vouchers will be hidden within the Cloth Market venue. Prizes will include Mozart Chocolate Liqueur shots, shot boards and Bounty Rumtini cocktails. 

The Bounty Rumtini can also be purchased at Revolución de Cuba during the Easter bank holiday weekend.

Easter Sunday will take place on March 31.
