LOVE IN THE AFTERNOON COCKTAIL
We are obsessed with this cocktail. Made with our lightly roasted Cacao Nibs to create a decadent raspberry syrup & garnished with our Après Bar. We never thought to use a bar piece to garnish a cocktail, so clever! This recipe uses Holystone Perla Vodka & Cerulea Gin, fresh lemon juice, soda water, & of course the raspberry cacao nib syrup.
Ingredients
1/2 oz Holystone Cerulea Gin
3/4 oz Raspberry Cacao Nib Syrup made with our lightly roasted Cacao Nibs (recipe below)
3/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
Top with soda water
Method:
In a cocktail shaker, combine all ingredients except the soda water and shake with ice until chilled. Strain into an elaborately romantic glass of your choice filled with ice. Top with soda water and garnish with a shard of our Aprés Chocolate and dust with dehydrated raspberry dust.
