Qui Oui?

Nico de Soto, Mace | New York, NY

Nico de Soto’s Qui Oui? is a twist on his rendition of the Aperol Spritz, which was created for his Parisian restaurant Daroco. Rather than aquavit, an ingredient in the original recipe, this cocktail calls on St-Germain for a more fruit-forward profile.
