A curious cocktail recipe quite unlike anything else. This exceptional drink combines the cucumber- scented Hendrick’s, the elderflowery goodness of St. Germain, roses, and the essence of the tropics in falernum:
- 4 oz Hendrick’s gin
- 1 oz St-Germain
- 1 oz falernum syrup
- 14 drops rose water
- 2 teaspoons absinthe - we’d recommend Absinthe St. Antoine
- 2 lemon twists
Combine ingredients in an ice-filled shaker and stir gently. Strain into 2 short-stemmed glasses and garnish with the twists.
