Had a stressful day at work and could use a drink, so I headed here. Bar Q88 looks like a typical bar lounge with live music. Not my type of scene, as I prefer my cocktails with soft music or none at all.I ordered My Fairy Lady, which had gin as its spirit base mixed with red date, lemon juice, blackberry jam, pernod and egg white. The upside is that they used egg white instead of an egg white substitute, which makes egg white cocktails taste better and presentation-wise, it looks good, but the

I ordered My Fairy Lady, which had gin as its spirit base mixed with red date, lemon juice, blackberry jam, pernod and egg white. The upside is that they used egg white instead of an egg white substitute, which makes egg white cocktails taste better and presentation-wise, it looks good, but the downside is that it just tastes like a berry shake with alcohol in it. There was no depth to it. The blackberry jam was just too overpowering.
I wanted to order their Rootbeer Float Mule after that, but I was afraid it might just taste like a rootbeer float with alcohol as well, so I didn’t.
If you want lively music to come with your drinks, then this joint is for you. But if you don’t, then there are other quieter hotel bars that definitely offer better and a much wider selection of cocktails.
