The Green Pearls® hotels focus a lot on sustainable and high-quality products. Many hotels even produce some of them in-house. Also, the good news for you is that you can buy many of the products and use them at home.
Corona has dominated our lives for almost a year now, and travel is, if at all, only possible to a limited extent. Since the first lockdown in the spring of 2020, hotels have had to close for tourist overnight stays, and after a brief recovery in the summer, they have now been closed again since November. This has created major challenges for hoteliers around the world. Some of the Green Pearls® hoteliers are defying the situation and using the time for renovations and implement new ideas.
Spring is just around the corner and we asked our partner hotels about what’s happening in their gardens now. Of course, we are happy to pass on the inspiration and tips to you. And even if you don’t have your own garden, some ideas can…
Spring is the start of the gardening season and all (amateur) gardeners are drawn outdoors again. If you are wondering about how to start gardening, we have the right recommendations for you today. The head gardener of Maslina Resort shares his gardening tips with you.

Th drink originated in the United States. In the 1920s, soda bars were all the rage, and soda jerks would mix drinks fresh with soda water, milk, ice cream, or egg, depending on the customer’s preference.
Today, cream soda is usually a sweet, carbonated lemonade with vanilla flavoring (though it doesn’t contain milk or cream). In the U.S., it’s often golden brown, but in Japan, there are also pink and green varieties flavored with cotton candy or melon.
In German-speaking countries, cream soda is not a standard supermarket beverage. Instead, it is often only available as an imported product in U.S./U.K. or Asian sections. (Note: Mass-produced brands like A&W (U.S.) and Barr (U.K.) typically contain artificial flavors, colors, and corn syrup.
You’ll have the smallest ecological footprint if you use cream soda syrups that you carbonate or mix with sparkling water yourself.)

Place the berries in a small bowl and mash them into a purée. Set a few whole berries aside for garnish.
Pour freshly squeezed lime juice into a glass or shaker and mix it well with either elderflower or agave syrup.
Hand-pluck the mint leaves and add them to the lime juice along with ice cubes. Then, shake or stir the mixture vigorously.
Fill the three serving glasses with the berry purée first, and then top them off with the lime-mint mixture.

Here's an optional tip from the hotel bartender: "If you like it spicy, add a splash of chili or ginger syrup. It gives the lemonade a cool kick that perfectly balances the fruity sweetness."
Garnish & Serve: Garnish with fresh berries, lime slices, and mint leaves. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top for an added kick that perfectly rounds out the flavor and enhances the fruitiness.
