How to reach out to old contacts?

Just looking for advice here - I started networking with bankers around February/March 2021 and I realized recently that I haven't reached out to most of my contacts since speaking with them months ago. What's the best way to email them again and keep the connection warm? I also just landed an IB internship at an extremely no-name boutique, do I mention that in the interview to update them on where I'm at?
