April in Paris

PH factor: 9.5

Recipe

Ingredients:

Cocktail

o 1 strawberry

o 1 ½ ounces Grey Goose vodka

o ½ ounce yellow Chartreuse

o ½ ounce orgeat syrup

o ¾ ounce fresh lime juice

o Fever-Tree Premium Club Soda

Garnish

o mint sprig

o strawberry slice

Method:

1. Muddle strawberry in a

cocktail shaker.

2. Add ice and remaining

cocktail ingredients except soda

and shake to chill.

3. Fine strain into an ice-filled

double Old Fashioned glass.

4. Top with soda.

5. Garnish with mint sprig

and strawberry slice.

Remarks:

This is a very well-balanced

cocktail. Normally we ascribe

to the premise that in cocktails

vodka should be present but

should not be noticed. However,

the slightly herbaceous quality

of the Grey Goose plays well

with the Chartreuse and mint

in this cocktail.
