Cocoön, the cosy bar with original seasonal cocktails in the 11th arrondissement

Fancy a quiet evening with friends, in a cosy setting, with tasty, originalcocktails? Then here's your new favorite spot, the Cocoön cocktail bar in Paris's 11th arrondissement! The place lives up to its name, with a relaxed atmosphere and soothing, subdued lighting in pastel tones. Each season, the bar changes its menu and cocktails to introduce you to the world of mixology at affordable prices.

For the first autumn season of the bar, due to open in 2022, the emphasis is on surprising flavors that go surprisingly well together. All cocktails are priced at 12 euros, so you can try several without hurting your wallet. For those who don't wish to drink alcohol, the original drinks are available in soft versions, as are fruit juices. And to keep you going through the evening, despite several drinks, there are a few delicacies on the menu, including hot dogs, salads, steamed gyozas and chocolate cake!

When it comes to cocktails, you won't find them anywhere else! These original creations are suitable for all tastes, from mild to full-bodied cocktails. Gourmets can opt for the Kubrick, a tribute to cinema in a box of popcorn (delicious, by the way!), with rum, maple syrup, penja pepper, lime, ginger beer and popcorn syrup!

More traditional, the In My Champ blends cherry (or peach) cream, vodka, champagne, lime and almond to make your palate sparkle. Despite the mix of alcohols, the overall effect remains soft and measured. We also opted for a more floral, summery cocktail, the Flower Power, undoubtedly the biggest surprise, so pleasant and smooth that there doesn't seem to be any alcohol in it. With its gin, Saint-Germain liqueur, lavender syrup, yuzu juice and basil, in a richly decorated glass, it's one of the cocktails clearly not to be missed while it's still around!

We finish with a seasonal cocktail, the Butter Not, a blend of amarula, vodka, butternut and pumpkin spiced syrup, and walnuts, perfect for a cosy moment, watching the rain fall from the warmth of one of the venue's soft armchairs. Lovers of mezcal, tequila, rum and whisky will also find something to their liking among the dozen or so original cocktails on offer at Cocoön, prepared by hand and with love! As the place is rather small, don't hesitate to book in advance!
