Ozone Mixology Bar Hong Kong
OZONE’s glitzy rooftop bar and lounge offers a sweeping view of the Hong Kong skyline. It features Asian tapas, creative cocktail lessons, and live DJs.
Ozone Bar Mixologist Oscar Mena
“I have always been fascinated by how each element has its place in this world while interacting and complementing each other,” said Oscar, the Mexican-born mixology maestro.
His five new creations are named after the five essential life elements – Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Each of them resembles the essence, Color, or flavour of its represented element.
Ozone Bar Menu – Water
for example, it is decorated with pearl-like yogurt bubbles in an oyster shell. Guests are not only reminded of the ocean visually by its eye-catching blue hue but also by its savory hint of umami bitters.
Coconut water is added to this vodka and sake-based cocktail to strike a balance.
Ozone Bar Menu – Metal dan Wood
Made with Alipus Mezcal’s base, which is aged in wooden barrels for a month before being served, Wood promises to impress with its smoky overtones.
Stirred with dashes of chocolate bitters and Fernet Hunter, a bitter liqueur with aromas of lavender and citrus, this powerful cocktail of amazing complexity is Oscar’s favorite.
Ozone Bar Menu – Earth
Earth is another must-try item on the menu, reminiscent of Oscar’s childhood memories of the earthy scent of the forest after the rain.
Shiitake mushroom-infused rum creates Earth’s essence, while non-alcoholic spirit, Seedlip Garden, and pandan syrup give floral notes to Oscar’s garden housed in a ceramic mug.
Oscar Mena’s Mix
“If you taste the cocktails in the order of Water, Metal, Fire, Wood, and Earth, you will see how these five distinct cocktails strike a perfect flavour balance,” Oscar suggested.
A savoury start with Water or a refreshing kick-off with Metal helps prepare the palate for the powerful Wood and fierce Fire, while Earth wraps up the flavourful journey as desserts do.
