Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 oz Sagaponack Farm Distillery bourbon
  • 1 oz Sagaponack Farm Distillery barrel-finished gin
  • 1/4 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 oz Mexican mint syrup (plain simple syrup is fine if you have no mint)
Mint Simple Syrup
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup water

Method
 

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the bourbon, gin, lemon juice and simple syrup.
  2. Shake well for 10-15 seconds.
  3. Strain into an ice-filled double rocks glass.
  4. Garnish with a healthy tuft of mint sprigs or a lemon peel. Enjoy!
Mexican Mint Simple Syrup
  1. Add the mint leaves into a small sauce pot with the sugar. Very gently muddle for a few seconds to release the oils.
  2. Add in the water and stir to combine.*
  3. Heat to boiling, and immediately reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
  4. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Transfer to a tightly-sealed container. Lasts up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
  5. *(If you're just making plain simple syrup, skip the mint, combine the sugar and water in a small sauce pot, and follow the instructions from there.)
