This past weekend we took advantage of cherry blossom season and went on an afternoon adventure. Toronto has many blooming trees throughout the city to enjoy. If you are looking to embrace your tropical side, try out this afternoon of flowers and pineapples.
Suggested Topical Toronto Itinerary
For this excursion you will need some comfy foot wear, your camera or cell phone, and a transit pass. To journey between your destinations, you can easily take the #501 (Uber is also a good option) with some walking in between.
First stop — High Park
Tip: Public transit is advised to use when visiting as no vehicles are allowed in the park during this time.
Second Stop – Miss Things
Tip: They have two epic Instagrammable drinks; “Miss Thing’s Love Bomb” served in a watermelon and “Waikki Do You Love Me?” which is served in a pineapple.
Third Stop – Trinity Bellwoods Park
Now that you are full of good food and yummy drinks it is time to jump back on the #501. This park is much smaller but still full of delightfully white and pink blooming flowers. This park tends to have fewer visitors than High Park so you may have more room to get the perfect photo.
Fourth Stop — Cocktail Emporium (Queen Street Location)
To wrap up your tropical adventure before heading home, walk over to this bright pink shop and stock up on your own Tiki drinkware. Here you will find a wide variety of bitters, pineapple themed décor, and everything you need to make your own tropical flower drinks.
