We’ve started an Unusual Ingredient Challenge. In other words, we’ve found an ingredient that isn’t often used in drinks and asked a bartender to incorporate it into a drink of their creation.
Once they are done, they have to then pass the challenge on to another bartender (from another bar) with a new, unusual ingredient.
Aadam Ernest from Cape Town bar Cause & Effect is our first contestant using the unusual and weird ingredient Wasabi Peas.
