Daiquiri of Tomorrow

By Gegham Mkheyan, Minas Bar in Yerevan, Armenia

Based on the classic daiquiri components of rum and lime, but with a kombucha twist! Ron Santiago de Cuba 11yo delicately passes through the rotary evaporator, leaving a portion of the alcohol to distil with Feijoa. The remaining residues transform into aromatic kombucha, which is used as a top-up soda for the cocktail, creating the perfect Daiquiri Highball. Each sip is a journey into the future of mixology, where tradition meets innovation in a glass.

• 45ml Ron Santiago de Cuba 11 Years Old
