ABOUT
This cocktail was created by Matthias Soberon (@servedbysoberon). This is a maraschino heavy gin sour with a heavy dose of Angostura bitters. The combo balances the sweet and bitter perfectly. It is meant to be garnished with a thyme sprig, but alas I only had rosemary. Try it with a thyme syrup! Cheers y’all!
