Ye's Apothecarya is a Szechuan-inspired cocktail bar that immerses visitors in an atmosphere reminiscent of a Wong Kar-Wai film. Located between Chinatown and Manhattan's Lower East Side, it features unique decor and the aromatic essence of baijiu, a liquor with a rich 9,000-year history. The menu showcases inventions like the Fallen Angel cocktail, blending baijiu with ingredients such as green-tea gin and peach liqueur. Despite its pungent reputation, baijiu boasts diverse varieties that appeal to a modern audience, presenting a fusion of tradition amidst the craft cocktail scene.
Beverage director Jake Babich created the Fallen Angel cocktail with flavors that complement the profile of Ming River baijiu, using green-tea gin and peach liqueur.
Baijiu is the most widely drunk spirit in the world, yet it has a reputation for being funky and pungent, with diverse styles across China.
