Vong Kitchen Bar Unveils "Liquid Alchemy Vol. 1": A Mixology Celebration of the Heritage of Nusantara
Abraham Reinehard as the Bar Supervisor of Vong Kitchen Bar and the creative force behind this initiative, shares his excitement: "Liquid Alchemy is our tribute to the diverse culinary heritage of Nusantara. Each cocktail tells a story, reflecting the essence of our culture and the artistry of mixology. Some of them come from the ancestry I am rooted in: Sulawesi and Java”.
Featured cocktails within this promotion include Treasure Cacao (a decadent blend capturing the essence of Indonesian cacao), 1950 (a nostalgic concoction consisting wine made of black glutinous rice), Trilogy of Sour (a trio of rum with a modern twist using cloves, nutmeg and star anise), Sarapan Pagi (a fusion of the classic Tom Collins to be tasted like nasi uduk, a traditional Betawi breakfast, in a glass), Cakalang (a bold cocktail infused with the flavors of the sea combined with herbs & spices from the Moluccas), Rujak Pasundan (a refreshing, spicy-sweet drink reminiscent of traditional fruit salad), Bajigur (an adaptation of the classic Irish coffee with coconut and palm sugar notes, creating the taste of comforting bajigur from West Java), and Tjendol Colada (a tropical fusion of the beloved cendol dessert and piña colada).
Additionally, the promotion will feature "Refined to Classics," a selection of inventive cocktails that put a modern twist on beloved classics. Highlights include the Guava Martini, a sophisticated blend of tropical guava and the traditional martini; the Mushroom Martini, an adventurous concoction with earthy, umami mushroom undertones; the Strawberry Muffin, a dessert-inspired drink that is both sweet and refreshing; and the Milk Tea, an indulgent cocktail inspired by the popular Asian milk tea beverage.
Vong Kitchen Bar invites cocktail enthusiasts, foodies, and cultural aficionados to experience "Liquid Alchemy vol. 1: The Heritage of Nusantara" from May 31, 2024. Join for an unforgettable exploration of Indonesia’s vibrant flavors, reimagined through the lens of modern mixology.
