Hier können Sie Cocktails in bester Gesellschaft geniessen


Explanation:
"spirits" im Sinne von Seelen und auch Spiritosen. Aber bloß nicht Wodka mit Whiskey mischen!

Etwas mit "Cocktails" wäre eine Möglichkeit.
- Hier lassen sich neue Cocktails ebenso wie neue Freunde bekannt machen
- Die Bar wartet mit ... auf.
