Nubeluz | New York's Ritz-Carlton Rooftop Luxury Night View Bar (2)๐๏ธ
Today's Drink Menu: ๐ธ โ Floral Cloud One of the bar's gimmicks is using molecular gastronomy techniques to make drinks. In a flask, they use a chemical reagent (probably dry ice) and a mixture of hibiscus, rose, and orange blossom to create a fragrant cloud on-site. ๐๏ธ This is a great nod to the bar's name, almost like a Chinese language master. However, the taste of the drink doesn't justify its $26 price tag. It's overly sweet and sour, lacking complexity. Not worth it! ๐ธ โค๏ธ Salt Air Margarita Another drink that tries to innovate with molecular gastronomy. Unlike a traditional margarita with salt on the rim, this one incorporates salt into the foam (Salt Air) that covers the drink, ensuring a balanced salty taste with every sip. However, there's a bit too much salt, making it taste like a salty lemon soda. It's better than the first one, and those who like a mix of sweet and salty might give it a try. โ Mezcal Last Word The Martini look is perfect for the venue's atmosphere, but it makes the same mistake as the first drink: too much lime juice compensated by excessive sweetness. ๐๏ธ The first sip is overwhelmingly cloying, though the smoky flavor of Mezcal slightly saves it.
