This weekend's Cocktail Of The Week is going Japanese at London's Watatsumi
watatsumi.co.uk , just off Trafalgar Square. This stylish bar is ideal for a pre-dinner aperitif and has some quirky twists to the great classics.
Sip on an Asian-inspired Shiso Martini, made with fresh shiso leaves, yuzu and wasabi, shaken with Disaronno and Honjozo sake. Or the Chic Nashi, a champagne cocktail muddled with fresh nashi pear and Xante pear cognac perfect with a bowl of spicy chilli-salt edamame. We really enjoyed the Watatsumi Mojito, a superbly refreshing alternative to the classic Mojito, with Blueberry syrup.
Dee-lish! So mouth-wateringly nice, we thought we'd stay for
dinner....
