Get Soaked: Mondrian SoHo’s Rooftop Bar Is Open!

Soaked Opens at Mondrian SoHo

Imagine getting your juice fix… with a shot of booze. That’s exactly what the skilled mixologists are serving up at Soaked, Mondrian SoHo’s newest rooftop bar, specializing in healthy cocktails with fruit infusions. And by healthy cocktails, we mean the liquid locale teamed up with two of our favorite guilt free snack stops—Liquiteria and the Soft Serve Fruit Co.—to offer refreshing, all-natural drinks (coupled with sweeping views of Manhattan, New Jersey, and Brooklyn).

You’ll need to make a reservation here before stopping by—unfortunately walk-ins are not welcome—to sample the “orchard to bar” bevvies. But trust us, it’s worth the hassle.  Once you score a spot, you can sip on specialties including the Watermelon Mojito (with Denzien rum, watermelon, mint, and lime), Aztec Frozen Hot Chocolate (with Mexican chocolate, chile de arbol-infused mezcal, Kahlua and your choice of cream or soy) and The Strawberry Rhubarb Popsicle (with Absolut Cherry Kran Vodka and basil). The selection is broken down into categories: Juiced, muddled, shaken, stirred, swizzled, pressed, brewed, frozen, fermented, soaked and infused. Sounds refreshing, right?

In typical Mondrian fashion, Soaked is outfitted with seriously chic furniture including oversized green couches loaded with pillows, bright yellow tables, overhead light strings, and astroturf on the ground (to keep your Louboutins protected). There is also a smaller, indoor space if you need a break from the heat.

You can sample the summer inspired spirits Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 6pm until 12:30 a.m. Cheers to good health!—CHASE ROSEN
