Mermaid’s Melody

Like the mesmerizing call of a mermaid, the MERMAID’S MELODY is a cocktail that lures you in with its exotic creaminess, citrus brightness, and a whisper of warm spice. At its heart is Gin Whaler, lending a subtle oceanic freshness that perfectly complements the drink’s tropical richness.

The smooth coconut cream adds a velvety body, while fresh lemon juice and simple syrup create a bright, balanced acidity. The unexpected finishing touch? A dusting of curry powder, which enhances the cocktail’s complexity with a hint of warm spice, rounding out the creamy, citrusy, and herbal notes in perfect harmony.
