Blogmas Day 9: Beachbum Berry Sippin’ Santa Holiday Bar

December 16, 2021

Hi Friends! I’m here with another short recommendation to head on over to Prince Waikiki hotel for their pop-up Christmas bar. It’s not your typical Christmas bar with ornaments and decorations like Christmas exploded on the walls, the outdoor bar had modern decoration and followed a theme of “Waikiki Christmas”. There were some local greenery like monstera leaves and ti leaves along with Christmas trees and aloha print stockings. The cups had Santas surfing with red and green details, paper umbrellas for the drinks, and the other dishware were ceramic pieces specifically made for this pop-up bar theme.

We tried the White Russian Christmas, and Kris Kringle Colada. I thought the colada was delicious but towards the end it was a little too tart for my liking. I’m assuming it was the lime juice. The White Russian was delicious. I’ve never had a White Russian before, but this exceeded my expectations. I enjoyed the creaminess and coffee taste that this drink had. Also, beware, these drinks are STRONG! After two drinks I was really feeling it. But, these drinks are so well crafted that the mix of alcohol doesn’t taste like strong alcohol.

The Sippin’ Santa holiday bar also has an array of wines, beers, well drinks, and some non-alcoholic choices. If you’re hungry, there are also small bites and snacks that you can order. We tried the Almond Joy beer blend which was a local coconut porter mixed with a local stout. I personally really enjoyed that mixture and wish I ordered that as well.

The cute and exclusive Sippin’ Santa cups are also available for sale. Honestly it is very steep for my budget, but a cute souvenir for tourists to bring back home. Overall, our experience at the Sippin’ Santa holiday pop-up bar was great. The servers were attentive and the drinks came out quickly and delicious. What more could we ask for? If you’re looking for a cute holiday bar to try, you should head over to Waikiki at the Prince Hotel to try Beachbum Berry’s Sippin’ Santa Holiday Bar. Until next time…

🍜 First stop: Maxi’s Noodle @maxisnoodle for a soul-warming wonton noodle soup—delicate broth, chewy duck egg noodles, and shrimp-packed wontons. 

🥢 Then, a quick bite at Tonii’s Fresh Rice Noodle for a duck rice roll, made fresh to order. Both were simple, delicious, and worth the visit! 

Can’t wait to go back for more. 🥢✨

📍Osaka Aquarium The Osaka Kaiyukan (Aquarium) 📍Osaka Aquarium

The Osaka Kaiyukan (Aquarium) was a nice stop during our stay on Osaka. We had to wait for about an hour for our queue time, but the mall next to the aquarium had a nice array of food options and stores to look through. 

What I appreciated about this museum was that they highlighted the different oceans and the animals in them. My favorite part was seeing the whale shark feeding, and the room of various jellyfish 🪼😱 I hope to go back for their Great Barrier Reef exhibit when it’s done with renovations, but it was cool to see the colorful coral and sea anemones that were in place of that exhibit. Overall, a great experience to see different types of wildlife than what we have at our local aquarium!

📍Osaka Castle, Osaka One of the highly suggest 📍Osaka Castle, Osaka

One of the highly suggested things to do in Osaka is visit the Osaka Castle. To get to the castle, the short 5 minute walk starts right outside of the Shinsaibashi station. The castle grounds are beautifully kept and the surrounding park is a nice place to take a leisurely stroll. Thankfully the weather was cool and the sun was not at its peak, because I could imagine that walk being unbearable during the summer!

Once you cross the bridge to get into the palace, we were greeted with informational signs and maps to get to the entrance of the castle. After paying the entrance fee of 600 yen ($3.85 USD), we decided to walk up the 8 floors to the observation deck at the top. I’m so glad we did! Each level showed us artwork that told the history of the battles held in Osaka, and there were even artifacts and warrior gear on display. You cannot take photos and videos of those, but you could pose in a warrior helmet, coat, and hold a sword for a paid photo! 

I am glad to have walked those 8 floors and learned about the history of the Osaka castle while viewing the centuries-old artifacts. If you are heading to Osaka, strap on those walking shoes and visit the castle!

Tip: I wouldn’t suggest this attraction to someone who cannot walk well. I believe the elevator only goes up to the observatory deck that is very crowded, and to experience the other floors you’d have to walk down steep flights of stairs.
