Uchi Miami’s Spicy & Passionate Tsurai Cocktail

View Gallery

Opening in Miami’s art-filled Wynwood district in early 2021, Uchi Miami has made a splash in the creative community over the last two years, thanks to its non-traditional Japanese menu and design-centric interiors.

Uchi Miami’s commitment to integrating Floridian flavors is evidenced by how tropical flavor profiles can be found across the food and beverage menus. The carefully crafted cocktails incorporate Japanese spirits with global ingredients. For example, the spicy yet tropical Tsurai mixes Astral Tequila, passion fruit, aperol and Thai chili.
