• ¾ tsp. / 3.7 ml. Branca Menta*

METHOD

ABOUT
This cocktail was created in 2021 by Alex Barbatsis at The Whistler (Chicago, IL). A bright, spiced take on a sour that walks the line between sharp and smooth. Cinnamon brings the heat, vermouth keeps it crisp. There’s just a hint of Branca Menta, but it’s what brings everything together. Cheers y’all!
