Asia Today - Review - Chinatown - Bangkok - The Infatuation

"Honey and alcohol have been best buddies for around 30,000 years—a.k.a. when they discovered mead—and this bar is serious about the ingredient. Asia Today works closely with gatherers from different parts of Thailand to incorporate wild honey into their cocktails. If you’re worried about the drinks being too sweet, don’t be—they always nail the right balance, and it feels like the team is pushing the limits of how different honey cocktails can be. The Eastern Honey, made with stuff from the bee of the same name, also uses gin, sesame, lime, and then gets topped with wild honey foam, and served in a beeswax mug (please don’t bite the beeswax mug). For a nightcap, their Irish coffee uses coffee blossom honey from Chiang Rai, and it’s as good as it sounds. photo credit: Willem Deenik photo credit: Willem Deenik photo credit: Willem Deenik Pause Unmute" - Vichayuth Chantan
