Is it really a holiday without booze on the side? To make our holiday celebration more convenient, Jim Beam recently released a limited edition “tin pack” with two 1-liter bottles of the world’s no.1 bourbon along with a tin that can conveniently be turned into an ice bucket and garnish tray as needed!
Available at S&R for only Php 1,438 per tin, the limited-edition tin pack may be an ideal holiday gift for those who want to pair their usual holiday fare with an easy-to-make yet deliciously refreshing drink. I bet your officemates who need a good break from work would appreciate a tin or two as a Christmas present this year!
The tin itself can be used as an ice bucket while the lid can be used as a garnish tray, making homemade highballs easier and more convenient this holiday season.
“We’re always excited to be part of the holiday celebration in Manila,” says Sally Lim, Senior Marketing Manager for Southeast Asia, Beam Suntory. “It’s the most widely celebrated season of the year that starts as early as September and stretches to January of next year and we think that’s one of a kind! That’s why we brought here the perfect gift for your friends and family.”
HOW TO MAKE A JIM BEAM HIGHBALL
The tin pack is an ideal starter kit to make your own Jim Beam Highball; a pleasantly refreshing drink made with Jim Beam bourbon, soda, ice, and ingredients of your choice.
The Classic Jim Beam Highball, for example, is made with Jim Beam; the world’s number one bourbon, soda water, ice, and lemon. The smooth, sweet flavor of our classic bourbon is enhanced by the sharp and clean zing of the citrus; a simple yet delicious mix.
A festive spin on the iconic drink is the Apple Cinnamon Jim Beam Highball. Aside from lemon juice, it’s made with muddled red apples for tartness and sweetened with cinnamon syrup before adding the Jim Beam bourbon into the mix.
If you’re feeling a bit creative, try the customizable Frozen Fruit Jim Beam Highball. In an especially refreshing twist, this variation replaces the ice cubes with 6-8 frozen pieces of your favorite fruits.

These are only three of the endless ways you can mix a Jim Beam Highball but no matter how you make it, it will always be enjoyably refreshing. Pair your traditional Noche Buena favorites with your chosen highball – its smooth and mellow taste perfectly balances with the strong-flavored Filipino Christmas dishes we know and love.
The Jim Beam tin pack is available throughout the holiday season at all S&R branches nationwide and via Lazada.
