Harvey Nichols is hosting a special RX Winter Garden on the Fifth Floor Roof Terrace in Knightsbridge from now to the end of January, in partnership with Lexus. The space has been transformed into a luxurious, yet still rugged winter garden to celebrate the launch of the new Lexus RX luxury SUV.
Harvey Nichols has also introduced a dedicated limited edition Japanese-themed cocktail and snack menu to celebrate the partnership with Lexus, The RX 450h hybrid will be on display outside the Harvey Nichols London store and at the Leeds, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham and Bristol stores throughout January.
The Harvey Nichols Winter Garden and cocktail menu have been inspired by omotenashi – the Japanese principles of welcoming hospitality, so whether you’re retoxing or detoxing this winter, there will be the perfect alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverage available to enjoy in the Winter Garden, from the Coco Go-Go (coconut flakes, water, cream and syrup with lemon juice and chilli) to the Oriental Blossom (vanilla-infused vodka, violet liqueur, lychee and lemon juice served over ice, with orange foam, dried orange and edible flowers).
The Harvey Nichols Lexus RX Winter Garden Cocktail Menu is available nationwide (excluding OXO, Harvey Nichols Dublin and Beauty Bazaar, Harvey Nichols Liverpool) from now to 31 January 2016, priced at £9 for alcoholic cocktails and £5 for non-alcoholic cocktails, and at £12 for alcoholic cocktails and £7 for non-alcoholic drinks at Harvey Nichols Knightsbridge.
