The Japan Sake and Shochu Makers Association is excited to present Japanese shochu cocktails handcrafted by renowned mixologists, from World's Best Bartenders to rising stars.

Born and raised in Japan, Julia Momose grew up with a meticulous appreciation for details. Since moving to America she has made it her mission to bring a genuine sense of Japanese hospitality to her work as a bartender. She opened her own bar, Kumiko in Chicago in December 2018, and is actively promoting Japanese saké and shōchū through her beverage program. In March of 2020, Momose founded a grassroots movement called Cocktails for Hope which successfully led to new legislation in Illinois surrounding the sale of premixed cocktails for pick up and delivery for bars and restaurants.

Watch her create her "Angels Ate Imo" cocktail, made with sweet potato shochu.

🔺1 tsp beni imo-su (purple sweet potato vinegar)
