Sugar rush and sweet banana booze at Kigali’s Fusion Restaurant
The cocktails at the bar range from Rwandan kari vodka to something called blood Mary that is a mix of vodka, tomato juice, lemon juice, worcestershire, tabasco, and celery.
It is the same warning they give you with muratina: that you should not be fooled by the sweetness as the honey-based brew trickles past your tongue. That after a while, it can and will demonstrate that it is alcohol anyway.
So, when I order a canned sweet banana-based alcoholic drink at the Fusion Restaurant in the Hemingways Retreat Kigali, with the alcohol content indicated as 14 percent, I am warned that the sweetness is a Trojan horse; that this drink has the power to make me attempt a Guinness World Record for the longest vernacular weeping soliloquy.
