In keeping with its mix of homegrown ingredients and chic presentation, Rangoon Tea House rolled out a new cocktail list after water festival, with drinks featuring everything from dragon fruit to Myanmar Beer.
Wait, Myanmar Beer in a cocktail? That’s right. “Mr. Aung’s Chai Beer” costs k5,000 ($5) and is a mixture of chai tea, dry gin, spiced syrup and the country’s most popular brew.
Other offerings include a “Chaijito,” a “Rangoon Julep” and a “Dragon Martini.” Read the full list, with the ingredients detailed, on their Facebook page. For the less adventurous, there is also Corona with lime wedge and Hoegaarden beer.
The drinks aren’t cheap, with most around $5. Unfortunately, there doesn’t appear to be a happy hour.
