Botanic District Hamburg

Funky highballs

""Botanic District" in Hamburg is a friendly bar that specialises in homemade infusions and highball cocktails. I really recommend their 'violette fizz'..."

I stumbled into this location because of a Tinder date. Who never showed up. But I was able to be hosted by one of the most friendly and empathetic bartenders ever. They made me try their homemade infusions based on fruits and herbs. No wonder where they got their name from... plus: the wonderful interior design includes plants and flowers. Who would have guessed. ;)

They are specialised in highballs, which they do in wonderful combinations. I love versions with espumas or egg whites like the "Violette Fizz" (with lavender and violet, on the right-hand side of my picture). The other had whisky, caramel and salt and was delicious!

If you are hungry there is food to grab but I prefer just the drinks.
