I love to use all types of herbs in every aspect of my life and more often than not it comes in the form of a cocktail. In the instance of the Herbal Pleasures drink, I was inspired by a fall cutting of my herbs to take spirits available on the commercial market that are based on herbs and combine them in a glass because, for some of us, a variety of fresh herbs are not found year round. With this cocktail the herbs are in the bottles and (almost) always available. The mix of an aromatic London dry gin, Yellow Chartreuse and the new Loft Lavender Cello, which adds sweetness, does the trick.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz London Dry Gin
- 1 oz Yellow Chartreuse
- 1 oz Loft Lavender Cello
- lemon twist for garnish
Preparation:
- Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
- Garnish with a lemon twist.
