Sip London’s Best Floral Cocktails At Aster’s Bloom Festooned Terrace

On a warm day, heaven is ice-cold, expertly-mixed cocktails accompanied by the likes of smashed avo on rye, eggs with hollandaise and lobster, flat iron steak with Café de Paris butter and of course, the option of unlimited bubbles. So it’s with open arms (and rumbling stomachs) that we welcome Victoria’s recently launched restaurant Aster and its revamped terrace, with a Nordic-cum-Parisian styled menu devised by Head Chef Helena Puolakka. Festooned with flowers to celebrate the onset of summer, the terrace offers a ‘Flower Hour’ menu of decadent floral cocktails scattered with petals, infused with bloom-derived syrups, and garnished with edible flowers. Luckily for your tastebuds, Bar Manager Gabor has shared three recipes below.
