Lynn has to admit she has World Cup fever. I mean, she just loves watching all the sweaty guys. At the W South Beach, their goal is to make you break a sweat and then cool you off with their World Cup-themed drinks.
Samuel Archer Jr., coach: “Start here, back leg in then out, back leg in, two steps out.”
This isn’t your average day at the beach.
World Cup fever is so high, the W South Beach brought in the pros from Soccer Shape to teach you some skills.
This class is more about the f-u-n than the f-i-t.
Samuel Archer Jr.: “We always keep it a team environment, and we always keep it fun, and we always keep it spirited.”
You don’t have to be a pro to take part.
Samuel Archer Jr.:”Doesn’t matter if it’s some soccer mom or, I always say, Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi. Everybody can do it.”
Hmmm, Cristiano Ronaldo. Can he teach and I just watch?
After feeling the burn, the offer also includes quenching your thirst inside the W’s Living Room bar.
Rick Ueno, general manager: “You get to enjoy one our specialty cocktail drinks that we have developed just for the World Cup.”
We’ve got the skinny on the four themed drinks.
Rick Ueno: “We’ve got the Feeling of the Field. It’s a refreshing cocktail.”
It’s made with gin, cucumber, lemon and ginger ale.
Then…
Rick Ueno: “We have the Spiced Kick, which is a celebration of Mexico, because we have tequila reposado, Mexican bitters, grapefruit and lime.”
Next…
Rick Ueno: “We have the Caribbean Goal, which is our version of the bloody mary. It has rum, tomato juice, lime, Maraschino, Tabasco and celery.”
And lastly…
Rick Ueno: “Be the Champion, and you really need to be a champion to drink this cocktail.”
You’ll probably need to drink this one responsibly.
Rick Ueno: “We have three liqueurs. We have Jameson, Black Label, Drambuie and chocolate bitters.”
Even a pro like me couldn’t handle that!
Cheers to the World Cup!!
