Budō Gin Sonic

The Gin Sonic, a modern take on the classic gin and tonic, blends equal parts tonic and soda with gin, creating a lighter, less sweet drink that still highlights the gin’s botanicals. Originating in Japan, it’s prized for its crisp, clean profile and easy-drinking refreshment.

 

Budō Kaikan Fizz

The Kaikan Fizz is a light and subtly inventive Japanese twist on the classic Gin Fizz. Created in Tokyo in 1949 at the Tokyo Kaikan, bartenders added an ounce of milk to gin, lemon, and sugar while reducing the soda, to disguise the cocktail as a harmless glass of milk, allowing patrons to enjoy it discreetly in daylight. Today, this frothy, lightly sparkling drink remains a beloved Tokyo specialty.

 

Budō Vodka Soda

The vodka soda is a simple, no-frills cocktail made by mixing vodka with soda water over ice, often finished with a squeeze of lime. Light, crisp, and low in sugar, it’s a go to choice for those seeking a clean, refreshing drink that lets the spirit’s character shine.

 

Budō Tokyo Mule

The Tokyo Mule is a Japanese spin on the classic Mule, blending vodka and sake with ginger beer and a splash of citrus for a bright, aromatic lift. Served over ice in the signature copper mug, it delivers a crisp, refreshing balance of spice and zest.

 

Budō Martini

The Martini is a classic cocktail made with gin or vodka and dry vermouth, typically garnished with an olive or a lemon twist. Known for its elegance and simplicity, it has been a symbol of sophistication and timeless style since the early 20th century.
