Barcelona-based bar Two Schmucks was inspired by the culinary background of its own team and the dishes they have personal connections to, and it created a new cocktail menu with a savory twist. The salads served at brasseries in the south of France served as the starting point for the Melon, Cheese & Pepper cocktail, prepared with melon cordial, gin and vermouth and a burrata foam to finish.
On the menu, there's also Granny Punch, based on a cucumber salad, and it is made with an unconventional combination of clarified milk, aquavit, manzanilla Sherry, white chocolate liqueur, vanilla, yogurt, cucumber and dill. Tom Kha is another menu standout that takes the form of a fish sauce-infused and clarified coconut milk punch.
