Elsewhere on Metropolis:

The concept of 0% is inspired by the Japanese word genki (energetic, cheerful or lively). Separating the characters gen (origin) and ki (life, energy), 0% emphasizes how genki is really about humans returning to our primordial  — or 0% — state. By resetting our bodies and minds to zero, the original state, we can experience life in a pure and energetic, revitalized state.

ASMR Mocktail

With an extensive menu of over 20 mocktails accessible via an online menu, reducing paper waste the mocktails at 0% are all about the experience. “Nepalade w/ASMR sound” is a multisensory mocktail full of depth with timur pepper and lemon undertones and accompanied with an ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) iPod playlist played through sunglass headphones.

The “Iceland Bubble” is probably the most Instagrammable item at 0%.

Bubbles and smoke

The “Iceland Bubble” is an Instagrammable, interactive mocktail that perfectly encapsulates the futuristic space theme of the bar. The bartender comes over to your table with a device, gives you time to get your smartphone ready for a video and inflates a large bubble at the top of your martini glass then invites you to pop it. The whole experience is dramatic with the smoke diffusing, spilling over the top of the glass. Theatrics overpower the taste, however, as the pineapple juice overwhelms the verjus and ginger honey syrup.

The “Jupiter IO” looks and tastes like a cocktail you’d find at a slick bar in Ginza.

Our top pick: Jupiter IO

On the other hand, the “Jupiter IO” looks and tastes like a cocktail you’d find at a slick bar in Ginza. Served in a sugar-rimmed champagne coupe, the faux white wine, sake and cranberry concoction makes you feel like you’re indulging in an alcoholic cocktail, minus the guilt.
