After such a LONG weekend full of sales, friends & family, you might want to “hit pause” on the irtual day to day treadmill you have been running this week. Put life on pause by mixing up one of these great cocktails from NOLET’S Gin! Either of these great recipes will slow you down a bit and have you smelling the roses as well as the great cocktail you will have mixed up!
Silver Autumn Blossom
Ingredients:
1 oz. NOLET’S Silver Gin
.75 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice
.5 oz. Simple Syrup
.5 oz. Aperol
1 Blood Orange Wedge
Method:
Muddle blood orange wedge with syrup in a mixing glass.
Add ice and remaining ingredients.
Shake and strain into a coupe glass. Garnish with an orange peel.
NOLET’S Silver Mint Gimlet

2 or 3 Mint Leaves
Mint Simple Syrup:

1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
1 cup Water
1 1/2 cups of Fresh Mint Leaves & Stems
1 Glass Jar
Method:
Mint Simple Syrup:
Place mint stems and leaves in a jar.
Bring water to a boil.
Add sugar, reduce heat, and stir until completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and pour over mint to steep.
Refrigerate when cool, and once refrigerated a couple hours, discard mint. Keeps for several weeks.
Cocktail:
In a shaker, bruise (don’t muddle) the mint leaves gently.
Add ice, gin, lime juice, and simple syrup.
Shake vigorously and strain into a coupe or other small cocktail glass.
Garnish with a mint leaf.
If you try either of these cocktails, let me know how it worked out. I highly recommend Nolet’s Gin for these cocktails and any other cocktails that call for gin!
