Sip Into the World of Mid-Century Modern with Virgin Hotels x Hulu

Sips & Sitcoms, Virgin Hotels is Redefining Cocktail Culture with Bold, Experiential Programming on the Rise of TV-Inspired Cocktails


Virgin Hotels is teaming up with Hulu to celebrate their new sitcom Mid-Century Modern with a special cocktail menu, now available for a limited time at all five U.S. Virgin Hotels: NYC, Chicago, Dallas, New Orleans, and Nashville.

Each hotel’s bar will be serving themed drinks inspired by the show. In Chicago, you’ll find them at Cerise, the rooftop hotspot with killer views and a party vibe. In Dallas, Nashville, and NOLA, head to Commons Club, the laid-back but stylish hangout. NYC’s Everdene rooftop will also be joining the fun with cocktails and skyline views.

The show, from the creators of Will & Grace and produced by Ryan Murphy, follows three best friends navigating love and life in Palm Springs—with a cast that includes Nathan Lane, Matt Bomer, and the late Linda Lavin. Virgin Hotels is channeling that fun, bold energy into every drink.

The menu includes playful sips like:

  • Boys Just Wanna Have Fun – vodka, cherry vanilla soda & lemonade

  • She’s Throwing Shade – gin, elderflower, grapefruit soda & lime

  • The Rainbow Rager – rum, Aperol, pineapple & cinnamon

  • Your Mother’s Spritz – citrusy and crisp with Italicus, wine, and grapefruit

  • Palm Springs Punch – tropical tequila mix with passionfruit and spice

Virgin says this collaboration is all about creating fun, pop-culture-driven experiences that go beyond your typical hotel bar. Each cocktail is designed to reflect a character from the show and keep the good times flowing.

The Mid-Century Modern cocktail menu will be available from March 28 until April 27, 2025, at select U.S. Virgin Hotels. For more information or to swing by for a sip, visit https://virginhotels.com/midcenturymodern/. All drinks can be made NA as well.
