Cocktail Recipes from Osaka Cocina Nikkei

If you haven’t already, it’s now time to fine-tune your mixology skills. Miami’s internationally famed Osaka Cocina Nikkei, which also has several outposts in South America and will soon hop across the pond to London, is here to help you with these two unique cocktail recipes. Boasting inventive flavors that merge two seemingly different but really complementary cultures, its Japanese-Peruvian menu features dishes like tuna ceviche, salmon tiradito and duck confit gyozas. Its cocktail menu is just as interesting with recipes that mix unusual, but exciting ingredients. Try these out at home to impress your roommate, partner or family, and let us know which one is your favorite.
