Blue Gin Rizz

From H. Joseph Ehrmann [1] of San Francisco's Elixir [2]

Blue Gin Rizz

Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 ounces gin (recommended: Bluecoat)
    1/2 ounce Canton Ginger Liqueur [3]
    1/2 ounce simple syrup
    3 kumquats (approx 1” in size)*
    Handfull blueberries

Directions

  1. Muddle kumquats and blueberries in a mixing glass.
  2. Add all other ingredients, fill with ice and shake well for 10 seconds. Hawthorne strain** into a highball glass of fresh ice and top with a few blueberries and slices of kumquat.

Makes 1 cocktail.

*I used 1/4 of a ripe peach, peeled and chopped into chunks because I couldn't find kumquats.

**My strainer was missing so I didn't strain the cocktail. It was still delicious.
