Honey Cocktails Introduction
Introducing a journey through time and flavour, our program delves into the rich history of honey, a golden nectar that traces its origins back to 2199 B.C. Revered in Sumerian and Babylonian writings, as well as the sacred texts of India and Egypt, honey holds the prestigious title of being the first widespread sweetener embraced by humankind. Witness the enchanting alchemy of bees, as their tireless efforts ensure that honey never expires, embodying the timeless essence of this extraordinary elixir.
Beyond its culinary allure, honey has been a trusted companion in the realm of medicine for centuries, acclaimed for its healing properties. From soothing coughs to promoting wound healing and boosting the immune system, honey has adorned the apothecary of countless cultures. Notably, a spoonful of neighbourhood honey is believed to hold the power to alleviate allergies.
In a harmonious collaboration, our Beverage Director, Afzal, has partnered with Nicole Buergers, the visionary founder of Bee2Bee. Together, they bring you an exquisite menu that marries the flavours of pure honey from the neighbourhoods of Musaafer with carefully selected spirits and a symphony of bitters.
