Red Stixs Southampton has a unique way of reimagining standard Chinese fare—and it does the same for standard cocktail menu staples. One example? The Spicy Ginger cocktail.
“It’s versatile enough to go with anything on our dinner menu,” says bartender Nicola Jakubowicz. “The specific ingredients chosen complement each other perfectly: a mixture of ginger and crushed red pepper opens your appetite, while the mint gives the cocktail a refreshing and light taste.”
