The Barbados National Day 2024
One of the things that made this round even more special was seeing how the High Commission of Barbados had invested in bringing a touch of the island’s culinary flare to Kenya.
Chef Rodney Ketoyo truly shone bright on this occasion and led the kitchen brigade @aqueouskenya to a delectable culinary peak in this the 3rd edition of the National Day in Kenya.
The A Team ran a tight operation behind the bar but there was a cost to having tasty drinks, again…. Our partners had to run back to the store to get more rum for this thirsty bunch so that we could close the event on a high. Lesson taken, we’ll see if it was a lesson learned at the next national day.
If you haven’t explored the option yet, try and make a move towards visiting Barbados. If a party in Karura in Nairobi can be this good, imagine what the carnival will be like on the island in August 2025?
One can only dream..

The beauty of the events game is in experiencing so many different expressions of how people can get together.
We were the bar & snacks provider at a Clothes Swap this weekend. The concept is that you come to the event with some clothes that you don’t necessarily use anymore, put them on a clothing rack and have the opportunity to pick something from someone else’s stash that might take your fancy. This is the way to adorn some new clad without subscribing to fast fashion.
If perchance you just wanted to donate some old but useful clothing, you could do that too. Our donations will go to two places - a centre that is helping rebuild the lives of flood victims in Kenya and an NGO that is helping rebuild the lives of families that have had to flee from the massacre in Palestine.
This is the sort of event we believe in, we are signed up for the long haul.
Cocktail of the day: The Paloma made with a home made grapefruit soda.
Everyones favorite snack: Fries, two ways, with three sauces.

🇧🇧 Did you know that Gary Sobers, a man from Bridgetown Barbados is one of the finest all round cricketers the world has ever seen?
We didn’t either. We didn’t know how deep the cricket is in the DNA of the soca island.
In a celebration of the Cricket World Cup 2024 coming to the Caribbean, the A Team got all dressed up and did what we do best on seriously fun occasions - we fed & watered our guests and created lasting memories.
F&B: @aqueouskenya
Vibes: All of you beautiful people.

Love & Connection over great drinks & great music
Every once in a while you find out that your degrees of separation are fewer than you think…
Couple: Kenyan & German
Setting: The Wonderful National Park right in the heart of Nairobi
Drinks: Gin heavy laced with some amazing tonics, some wine, some beer
Degree of Separation between us and the couples family: 1
Common point of mutual happiness: Seeing Sauti Sol blossom
When we went in for the ops meeting, our host said to us ‘the boys at Sauti Sol said you guys know what you’re doing. We told them that Aqueous bounced on to the scene as a plucky mobile cocktail bar offering around about the time Sauti Sol were releasing Mwanzo.
We can’t express what a joy it was to see the happy couple jamming to their favourite band under the African stars while we reminisced the National Museum 2010(?) event where we were working the bar and Sauti Sol were opening a valentines event.
Look how far we’ve come…
Get your bar right for your event, it’s over 50% of the vibe factor.

Kingkline is one of the old school A Team members. He started out bar tending for me at Norfolk, went on to mercury and then was a part of the crew who helped build Aqueous to become what it is today. Now, he is the Bacardi Brand Ambassador for Kenya but still takes the time to come over to HQ to help with trainings and brush up.
