Wintergreen Homestead Sipper
The Wintergreen Homestead Sipper is a delightful English cocktail that captures the essence of cozy winter evenings and rustic homestead charm. Infused with fresh wintergreen, parcels a peppermint-like aroma and invigorating notes, balanced beautifully with luscious blackberry syrup for a fruity depth. Honey adds natural sweetness and smoothness while fresh lemon juice introduces a crisp tang that brightens the blend. Preferred gin styles such as London Dry enhance the herbal and botanical layers.
Tips & Notes
- Steeping wintergreen correctly is key; excessive steeping can cause a bitter edge.
- Homemade blackberry syrup from fresh or frozen berries boosts flavor authenticity.
- Honey choice affects flavor — unfiltered, raw varieties add mineral depth.
- Serve immediately after mixing to enjoy optimal chilled freshness.
