We enjoyed everything so much that we couldn&#8217;t wait to come back and sample the Spring menu a couple of weeks ago. I love it that RA Sushi offers different special menu items in different seasons because these items use the products and ingredients readily abundant and locally sourced whenever possible. It not only brings freshness to the customers but also help support local vendors and communities.<\/p>\n<p>This is one seriously happy place to be. The dining room was packed with happy hour patrons. Just so you know, like I&#8217;ve mentioned before, RA Sushi has one of the best Happy Hour menu in OC! Practically 1\/2 of the menu (and they menu is BIG!) is on Happy Hour special.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pp-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/wendyfulworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/31-7451-post\/Ra-Sushi-Spring15-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"490\" \/>There are 3 &#8216;Spring&#8217; cocktails on the Seasonal Menu.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HOT TROPICS MARGARITA<\/strong>\u00a0(A combination of sweet and spicy, Tanteo Tropical Tequila and Combier Liqueur d\u2019Orange are shaken with mango pur\u00e9e, lime juice and agave nectar; served with a chili-salted rim)<\/p>\n<p><strong>PEAR &amp; LEMON BLOSSOM<\/strong>\u00a0(Absolut Pears, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, lemon sour and pear pur\u00e9e make for a refreshing seasonal pear-infused lemonade)<\/p>\n<p><strong>PEACH BASIL SOUR<\/strong> (A flavorful mixture of Bacardi Peach Red, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, fresh basil &amp; lemon sour.
