Liquid Diary

Innsbruck, Austria

Liquid Diary opened in 2018 on Adolf-Pichler-Platz in central Innsbruck, and founder Damir Bušić remains its creative head. The bar balances its cocktails with house-made oxymel, a maceration of honey, vinegar and botanicals, and its rule of no refined sugar and no citrus runs across the whole menu. Five house oxymels include Heimat with alpine blossom honey and pear vinegar, Freiheit with linden honey and calamansi vinegar, and Mediterran with passion fruit vinegar and Tasmanian mountain pepper. Signatures include Artemis II with gin, coconut water and tonic, and the Goatfather with tequila, mezcal and mountain pine. Leather-bound diaries beside the menu collect guests' stories that feed the drinks. Walk-in only, cash or bank transfer, Tuesday to Saturday from 18:00.
