Story

The Operetta Star's interval drink is the producer's own serve idea: Watermelon Nubis with dry sparkling wine and soda over ice. The watermelon liqueur swirls with shimmer as the bubbles rise, light and fruity, never syrupy.

She sings operetta in a Hongkou café theatre and her gown catches the light like a glass of Nubis. Refugee artists really did stage operettas and cabaret in 1940s Shanghai.
