The Slow Like Suzy Cocktail
Ingredients
- 1 and 1/2 ounces Occitan Gin
- 1 ounce strawberry-infused* Centum Herbis**
- 1/4 ounce Bordiga Bianco Vermouth
- 1/4 ounce Bordiga Extra Dry Vermouth
Instructions
- Stir with ice to chill, strain into a coupe glass.
- *To infuse Pearl Hour’s favorite alternative to hard-to-find green chartreuse and its similar “exciting and interesting story,” per Blandin, slice and soak organic strawberries in a sealed jar of the spirit for 24 hours.
- **For the non-spirits nerds, Centum Herbis (Latin for “100 herbs”) works as an easier-to-find, but-no-less-potent, alternative to chartreuse. In short, yet another item that honors Steinbeck’s spirit(s).
