Cocktail bar: Smooth operator

This delicious cocktail was created by a Kenyan mixologist in honour of American Saxophonist and composer Kenny G. He is currently set to perform in Nairobi, Kenya, on September 27. Kenny G’s music and the Smooth Operator cocktail are alike because they both focus on being smooth and easy to enjoy.

Just as the drink mixes ingredients like gin, elderflower liqueur, and peach puree to create a sweet and botanical flavour, Kenny G’s music blends jazz, pop, and R&B into a gentle, calm sound. Neither is meant to be challenging. Instead, they both aim for a pleasant and comforting experience that is easy to like. This makes them great for a relaxing mood, not for deep concentration.
