143, HuaMei West St.

Bartender: Jennifer Chiang
Drink: Frozen Kiwi Daiquiri

By Courtney Donovan Smith Translation by Iva Huang

Dancing away the evening at one of The Londoner's famed parties is a great way to build up a sweat. To cool off that heat, a visit to their big open patio might do the trick - but Jennifer Chiang will introduce us to one of the most legendary beat-the-heat drinks of all time: the Daiquiri. In Cuba in 1896, an American mining engineer stuck with hosting a group of VIPs and having run out of the then ubiquitous gin, concocted this drink using local rum. The Londoner brings us a frozen, kiwi-flavoured variation on this summer classic.

* 1/2 oz. Kiwi Syrup
