NOWNESS
Photographer Qiu Yang's pop-tastic still lifes illustrate leading mixologist Nicolas O'Connor’s ultimate day of seasonal drinking. From a refreshing mimosa at first light to that essential pre-bed Alka-Seltzer, the head barman at Manhattan’s opium den-turned- cocktail bar Apothéke knows the right blend for winter cheer. The pharmacy-themed saloon has won praise for its 250-strong cocktail list with specialty ingredients including rose water, cayenne pepper and herbal elixir, all served amid the cool décor of an imported marble bar and gold leaf ceiling.
