Elevate Your Cocktail Game with a Refreshing Gin Twist
If you’re looking for a drink that’s both elegant and effortless, look no further. New York City’s Death & Co. has perfected a gin and elderflower concoction that’s sure to impress.
Gin and Elderflower: A Match Made in Heaven
At the heart of this recipe are two key ingredients: Plymouth gin and St-Germain elderflower liqueur. Plymouth gin, an English spirit, can be found at high-end liquor stores and online. Meanwhile, St-Germain has won over bartenders with its subtle, floral flavor profile.
A Simple yet Addictive Recipe
With just five ingredients, this recipe is easy to whip up and packs a punch. Here’s what you’ll need:
• 2 ounces Plymouth gin
• 1/2 ounce St-Germain elderflower liqueur
• Dash orange bitters
• Ice
• Grapefruit twist
Shake, Strain, and Serve
Combine the gin, St-Germain, and bitters with ice in a cocktail shaker and stir until condensation forms on the shaker. Strain over ice into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with a grapefruit twist. The result is a refreshing, citrusy drink that’s perfect for any occasion.
Why This Recipe Stands Out
What sets this recipe apart is its balance of flavors. The Plymouth gin provides a crisp, dry base, while the St-Germain adds a subtle floral note. The orange bitters tie everything together, creating a harmonious blend of flavors that will leave you wanting more. With its ease of preparation and addictive taste, this recipe is sure to become a staple in your DIY home bar.
