ABOUT
Today was my 4th commencement as a college professor! Let’s celebrate with a Chartreuse cocktail! This cocktail comes from Andrew Volk of Hunt + Alpine (@huntandalpine) in the other Portland (Maine). This Last Word riff subs out maraschino and takes it down the sour route. I love how gin forward this variant is. Cheers y’all!
