The founders of Omakase + Appreciate bring to you an intimate drinker's dream. Served by the fantastic creative talents of Shirmy and Joel, I wish I did not have to reveal such an incredible bar. But alas, as are all great alcohols worth drinking, it deserves to be shared. Here are a few drinks I can't recommend enough:

Sirap Selasih
This reminds me of the merriment of a kenduri or an open house. Probably because I associate that with rose sirap water. This drink creates a unique memory that anchors firmly in your tastebuds. The use of gin adds a layer of complexity to this drink, finished off strongly with the bitter notes. An incredible drink that's visually inviting even with the use of frog egg jellies! A signature drink from Joel that is worth a place on anybody's order.

Paloma's Date
The neutrality of this drink in every sense is incredible. Yet, it doesn't lose its striking notes of flavour to the combination of bland ingredients. Oddly, the combination of red date water and grapefruit completely reminded me of the ginseng candies that I had in my childhood. The mellow sweetness with streaks of light bitterness gives it this glow that makes it an oddly addictive drink. You'll have to try this because the taste on the tongue succeeds at illustrating a review where words fail.

Pekoe Park City
Strong. Just strong upon first sniff. Yet, the scent of the jasmine tea comes through well despite the strength of the alcohol. That's a testament to the fantastic mixology on offer here at Sparrow. A subtle lingering zing from the honey leaves a lasting sweet memory on the tongue. If you needed a stiff drink that can calm the nerves, this would be it. This is honey jasmine tea with a knockout punch.

Hummingbird's Dream
This is now my drink of choice at Sparrow. Hands down, without a doubt. And to think that the bartender, Shirmy made this on the fly with just the instructions of wanting a gin based alcohol that is citrusy in taste. That's just a natural knack for mixing right there. Visually, it looks like a watered down sirap bandung that would just be far too sweet but you cannot be more wrong upon the first sip. Delicately balanced between a refreshing cooler and a stiff drink, garnished just right with a dash of sour on the layer of egg white, this simply tastes right as it sits on your tongue.

Tips:
i) To find this sparrow, go up to the place where the scent of coffee on your nose is bright as a bulb.
ii) Sparrow is open on the first Sunday of every month but the subsequent Tuesday would be an off day. Normal operating hours are from 18:00 till 01:30 on Tuesday to Saturday.
iii) If you want to taste something strong with a fizz, ask Joel for my drink - Smoke on the Water.
