Here are some tips to make Father’s Day extra special for the family’s superhero


There’s something about fathers that inspires awe and wonder. They are usually their children’s first hero, first love, silent defender, and indulgent spoiler. From childhood to adulthood, their endearing (and sometimes exasperating) qualities have shaped how their children look at themselves and the world.

 

This Father’s Day (June 16), take the time to really make your father feel loved, recognized, and appreciated. This could often be a challenge because fathers come in so many shapes and sizes. Some are the quiet type and shy away from attention, some are grumpy or temperamental, some are outgoing and expressive, some work so hard they turn days into nights, some are sporty, while some are just happy to veg out in front of the TV.


 

No matter, here are some tips to make Father’s Day extra special for the family’s superhero: 


 

·       For the foodie dad: Surprise him with lunch or dinner in his favorite restaurant. Try out a new place that serves his favorite cuisine or dish. If he enjoys cooking, get him a kitchen gadget or appliance that will elevate his cooking even more. For brew masters or coffee lovers, nothing beats driving up to old haunts or new finds for a glass (or two) of craft beer or freshly brewed coffee.

 

·       For the stylish dad: Branded or not, formal or casual, your dad always looks dapper in whatever he chooses to wear. Why not take him out shopping and then surprise him with a special Father’s Day treat? A branded pair of shoes he has mentioned quite a few times, a classic watch, a pair of jeans and shirts that will make him look groovier and younger. There’s nothing like seeing your father’s face when you hand him your gift. Perhaps because he is so unbelievably touched the child he once carried can now afford to give him gifts.

 

·       For the music-loving dad: Take him to a vinyl store so he can pore over to his heart’s content all the music albums of his youth. If budget’s not an issue, get him a turntable as well so he can enjoy listening to the first batch of his vinyl collection. Or simply get him a new Bluetooth speaker or earbuds so he can listen to his playlist anytime.

 

·       For the sporty/adventurous dad: Join him in a round of golf, play pickleball together, go camping or biking with him, join him test-drive a car he has been eyeing, or better yet, surprise him with a local or overseas trip.

 

·       For the techie dad: If he loves to tinker with gadgets, it may just be the time to upgrade his phone, tablet or laptop. You can also get him a TV stick or smart TV so he can watch movies, documentaries, or sports games.

 

Yet regardless of what your father is like, giving them the gift of health will always be a good idea. Parents in their pink of health are a family’s wealth. What better way to celebrate than to accompany your dad in his regular medical check-ups or in his first annual physical check-up in a long time. As a practical gift to your ever-pragmatic dad, get him a Sun Grepa Senior Care offered by Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc., a major life insurance company in the country. Sun Grepa Senior Care addresses the life and health protection needs of senior adults by providing financial security for medical issues that may happen. Your dad will gain security and peace of mind as it protects his hard-earned savings so he can continue enjoying his senior years without any worries.

Ginebra San Miguel Unveils Newest Batch of Gin-is-In Ambassadors


Ginebra San Miguel Inc. (GSMI), the maker of the world’s largest selling gin, names Jayson Luzadas aka Boss Toyo rapper and host of the popular Youtube show, Pinoy Pawnstars, the showbiz newcomer and heartthrob lawyer of Cebu, Atty. Oliver Moeller, and GMA Sparkle Talent and content creator, Mikee Quintos as the new ambassadors for the next “Gin-Is-In” campaign


They were introduced during the World Gin Day celebration at Novotel Manila, attended by friends from the media, social media celebrities, and brand ambassadors. 

Through the “Gin-is-In” campaign, GSMI aims to ignite a greater appreciation of gin’s outstanding qualities that separate it from other liquor categories, as it is a drink that is ‘Cool, Clear, and Versatile.’ 

Gin has a distinct aroma and taste profile, which can be attributed to juniper berries and select botanicals that give it a cool and refreshing vibe. Gin’s clear quality is ensured by the meticulous distillation process that delivers purity of essences. Gin is also a versatile drink that you can mix in many ways depending on the occasion on your choice.

 

Gin is Cool 

 

Rapper and content creator Boss Toyo, known for his buy-and-sell business “Pinoy Pawnstar,” boasts a collection of over 400 cool, unique, and valuable memorabilla previously owned by celebrities and personalities. For Boss Toyo, Ginebra San Miguel’s 190-year history as a brand makes it cool. A refreshing shot of gin helps him unwind after a busy day of deal-making. The crispness and botanical notes of gin is the perfect way to cap off his deals.  

 

Gin is Clear

 

A new face in the showbiz industry, Cebu-based Atty. Oliver Moeller understands the importance of clear communication in sharing his legal, fitness, and sports advocacies as a public figure. Atty. Oliver appreciates the clear character of gin as a spirit that truly fosters connection and good times, as he enjoys it to drink with friends. 

 

Gin is Versatile 

 

Much like a well-crafted gin, Mikee Quintos brings a range of talents that allow her to excel in the entertainment industry. As an actress, Mikee is game to portray and act out any role. What Mikee loves about gin is the endless possibilities of cocktails out there. No matter the day or mood, there's a perfect gin cocktail that goes with it.

 

GSMI is thrilled to have three exciting and authentic personalities who perfectly embody the unique characteristics of gin – Boss Toyo is ‘Cool like Gin,’ Atty. Oliver is ‘Clear like Gin,’ and Mikee is ‘Versatile like Gin.’ 

As part of World Gin Day festivities, here are five pocket events scheduled on June 8 - Takas Bar in Katipunan Quezon City, Southvibes in Dasmarinas Cavite, Olive Bar in Angeles Pampanga Tambayan sa Pardo in Cebu City and GG Sisig in Davao City featuring music and games sure to make these affairs unforgettably fun. For the rest of the Saturdays in June, Gin is In promotions will give away prizes when patrons order the featured gin drinks.Gin is truly in on World Gin Day and everyday.
