Aiming for a boozy nori-milkshake, this creation takes its name from your favourite anime, Akira. It’s a combination of some of my favourite ingredients. Rum and coconut milk make a lot of sense together. I love Lillet and its elegance. I love cardamom bitters because they’re dope and we all love nori. Its best friend is named Kaneda, made with Carpano and allspice bitters, minus the absinthe.
