Discover how Cointreau and the SunSeekr app turn London’s real-time sunshine into a live map of the best terraces for a Cointreau Spicy Margarita.
Cointreau partners with SunSeekr
There’s a particular London optimism that arrives with a September afternoon, and Cointreau is betting on exactly that feeling. The maison is partnering with SunSeekr, the sunshine-mapping app that went viral this summer, to launch a first-of-its-kind live guide to London’s sunniest terraces for a Spicy Margarita.
From 3 to 30 September, the interactive map follows the sun across the capital and updates throughout the day. An east-facing terrace in the morning, a rooftop at full noon, a riverside bench glowing at golden hour: wherever the warmth lands, the next margarita is never far.
It all shines a light on Cointreau Spicy, the maison’s first chilli-infused expression, which arrived in the UK this July. And it lands at the right moment: the Margarita continues to dominate cocktail culture, while its spicy cousin is having a breakout year.
The map also points the way to selected Sainsbury’s stores, for anyone who’d rather bring the sunshine home. A bottle of Cointreau Spicy, a few limes, and the rest takes care of itself.
“Cointreau Spicy is all about bringing warmth, vibrancy and sociability to those last outdoor moments, and partnering with SunSeekr felt like the perfect way to help people enjoy a Spicy Margarita in the sunshine.” noted Kevin Sueiro, Cointreau Brand Ambassador
"With the ambitious goal of reducing our Green House Gas emissions (GHG) by 50% per bottle by 2030, this collaboration with ecoSPIRITS is another step in the right direction to reduce our single-use glass bottles and ensure we move towards carbon neutrality by 2050. This program is part of our CSR roadmap built around Terroir, People & Time, where climate change, responsible consumption, and sustainable production (products and transport) are at the heart of it.” added Elisabeth Tona
Paul Gabie, CEO of ecoSPIRITS, said: “Rémy Cointreau is an industry-leading drinks company, and we are delighted welcome them as our first global brand partner in the United Kingdom. It is no small milestone when Cointreau and Mount Gay, each an iconic brand in its own right, join the circular economy. Cointreau will also be the first global liqueur brand to be available in our award-winning ecoTOTE format. The transition to circular is gathering momentum in the spirits industry. We applaud the entire Rémy Cointreau team for their commitment to building a sustainable future together.”
