ABOUT
This modern classic cocktail was created by Jeremy Oertel for Donna Bar (New York City). I love how he blends distinct flavors here: bitterness, floral notes, brightness, and esters. The flavors are bold, but come together really smoothly, giving it an earthy depth and a refreshing finish. Cheers y’all!
