The Best New Bars in Minneapolis and St. Paul | Eater Twin Cities

"Chef Jeff Watson’s Korean roots and East Asian communal dining meld at Minari in Minneapolis’s Sheridan neighborhood. These flavors carry over into the drink menu full of cocktails (for both brunch and dinner), mocktails, and a section devoted to highballs. “Highball #2” features umami-forward mushroom soju, mildly sweet and nutty Hwangcha yellow tea, and a bit of carbonic fizz. The Mekarushi cocktail blends fruity, peppery Japanese Cor Cor Okinawan rum with black and the usual green lime with a bit of salty-sweet funk from fermented shio koji. Reservations are available through Resy." - Natalia Mendez
