Summer arrives with an energy all its own – warmer evenings, longer tables, and an appetite for something vivid and alive. Lucky Cat Manchester answers with something made exclusively for the season: The Golden Edit, a brand-new tequila cocktail menu and the most stylish reason yet to find a table on King Street.

Lucky Cat has always known how to make the most of a moment. Now, house music fills the room, resident DJs carry the energy into the evening, and there’s an atmosphere that moves from long summer lunches to late-night occasions without missing a beat – this is a restaurant built for the spirit of the season.

The Golden Edit features five cocktails, each one a meeting of Lucky Cat’s Asian-inspired instincts and the warmth and depth of premium tequila and mezcal. Every serve arrives alongside a piece of spicy tuna hosomaki, chosen by the kitchen as the perfect introduction to each cocktail and the ideal way to set the tone for dinner:

Golden Ritual
Genmaicha-infused Casamigos Reposado with white chocolate-washed Lillet Blanc, Noilly Prat, and honey. Rich, roasted and served over a gold chocolate lattice.

High Summer
Pandan-infused Código Blanco with falernum, fresh watermelon, lime, and soda. Tropical, refreshing, and dressed with a golden banana leaf.

Smoke & Blossom
Chilli Código Rosa and Del Maguey Vida Mezcal with lychee, lime, and cucumber. Heat, smoke, and floral sweetness in a single glass.

Golden Sunrise
Don Julio Blanco with Akashi Tai Yuzu Sake, sansho pepper syrup, and a Syrah float. Finished with lemon foam and gold leaf – the most refined serve of the season.

Going Rouge
Tomato-infused Código Blanco with La Tomato, Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, lemon, and a touch of soy. The menu’s boldest, most unexpected chapter.
