Discover the Jewel of Umese Cocktails at The CHOYA Ginza Bar

The CHOYA Ginza Bar, a unique establishment dedicated to umeshu cocktails, recently introduced an exquisite new drink – the "Jewelry Strawberry" cocktail. This delightful beverage, crafted with 100% Kishu Nanko plums and seasonal strawberries, will be available for a limited time from February 18 to April 22, 2026.

A Unique Combination of Flavors

The Jewelry Strawberry cocktail features the perfect blend of rich umeshu syrup made from fully ripened plums, combined with a luscious strawberry syrup and freshly chopped strawberries. To elevate its presentation and flavor profile, a creamy yogurt espuma is layered on top, crowned with a whole, ripe strawberry. Adding an artistic touch, a slice of apple elegantly covers the strawberry, while a scoop of strawberry ice cream drizzled with plum-strawberry syrup rests peacefully alongside a piece of ume mochi.

As you gently unveil the apple slice lid, a vibrant strawberry emerges, reminiscent of the thrilling moment when one opens a treasure chest. This delightful surprise is truly what inspired the name "Jewelry Strawberry." The cocktail boasts a rich umeshu flavor uniquely balanced with the creamy sweetness and tanginess of strawberries and yogurt, making it a fruity and luxurious treat.

Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic Options

The new cocktail selection allows patrons to choose between an alcoholic variant and a refreshing non-alcoholic version. Guests can also explore a range of food options featuring ume-inspired dishes, appetizers, and desserts designed to harmonize with umeshu. Among the offerings is a flight set of three to five distinct types of umeshu to taste, in addition to over 100 drink choices available in the exciting 'Ume Full Afternoon Tea & High Tea' course, which includes a delightful array of desserts.

Coffee, tea, and other hot beverages are also part of the unlimited drink offerings, ensuring a relaxing experience in an elegantly casual setting. The CHOYA Ginza Bar invites you to unwind with friends or family, whether you're enjoying a leisurely lunch or taking a break during a shopping spree.
