The History of the Raspberry Up

Drink Kong is an award-winning bar found in the city centre of Rome hosting a unique cocktail experience. The cocktail bar opened in 2018 by one of Rome’s best bartenders, Patrick Pistolesi, who has an ambition to make a name for itself in Italy and beyond; through their New York 1980s vibe and unique, Japanese inspired, mixology menu.

 

The elegant cocktail menu accommodates contemporary drinks made in a lab of drinks-making equipment; merging science and tradition. It is a self-professed ‘instinct bar’ whereby you pick a cue (e.g. flavour) and your barman will do the rest. Coming up with minimalistic drinks with zero decoration and no straws avoiding the impact on the environment, focusing solely on flavour.

 

Raspberry Up can be found on the ‘New Humans’ cocktail menu. It is a menu which celebrates new languages, and is a representation of an evocative journey made of shapes and colours. Drink Kong explain there ae five archetypes that symbolize the central flavours in the menu advocating five frontiers of taste to satisfy the palate of the new humans. Raspberry Up can be found in the Kudamono section of the menu, which in Japanese means “everything related to fruit”, it is a concentration of freshness and flavour. It is a deep and elegant fresh drink, with a cheeky spiciness.
