A cosy sip inspired by the flavours of American fall.
Four Roses Bourbon infused with vanilla pod, honey liqueur, cinnamon, orange bitters, and demerara syrup. Think pumpkin-spice sophistication without the cliché. It’s a warm hug in a glass, crafted with Opium’s signature flair.

The Perfect Pairing: Opium’s Infamous Dim Sum
No Thanksgiving feast is complete without great food and while Opium’s menu isn’t traditional American fare, its handmade dim sum dishes might be the most delicious pairing you’ll find anywhere this season.
Crispy, steamed, and aromatic selections complement the spice-rich cocktails beautifully. From their iconic Xiao Long Bao to the melt-in-your-mouth roast duck dumplings, Opium’s dim sum elevates the Thanksgiving experience into something truly unique.
This thoughtful combination of festive cocktails + award-winning dim sum is exactly why Opium continues to be celebrated as one of the best Thanksgiving restaurants in Soho for visitors and Londoners alike.
