  "account": "Vibes, an open-air bar lounge, has introduced a new cocktail menu called \"Memories of Our Years,\" inspired by classic Hong Kong flavors. These eight inventive cocktails reimagine local neighbourhood spots like corner shops, herbal pharmacies, cha chaan tengs, and dessert shops as unexpected drink pairings.\n\nOne standout is the \"First Moon Yuet,\" which pays homage to the traditional Cantonese celebration marking a baby's first month. The drink blends jalapeño-infused tequila, ginger liqueur, sweet Pat Chun vinegar, and egg white for a tangy, savory cocktail finished with a soy-infused quail egg.\n\nThe \"Kowloon Highball\" features baijiu, red date syrup, lemon, and goji berry-hawthorn soda to evoke Chinese medicine. Meanwhile, \"Ka Ying Che\" combines plum, umeshu, lemon, and a Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa cough syrup foam foam on top.\n\nFor those seeking comfort, the menu also includes \"Mr. Yuen Yeung,\" a cha chaan teng-inspired cocktail with Earl Grey gin, Ceylon tea, condensed milk syrup, and coffee foam. \"Tong Shui Po\" turns sweet sesame soup into a boozy treat with black sesame-infused vodka, mango purée, and coconut cream. Lastly, \"Misty Pu Er\" updates the tea house experience by shaking Pu'er-infused tequila with lime, agave, and yuzu foam.",
