 THE RECIPE 2oz. 504Silver 1oz. Clover honey simple syrup 1oz. lemon juice Shake ingredients with ice, strain into rocks glass. Serves 1. THE STORY Honey is really the low-key star of this cocktail. Sort of like that guy we see in the all movies who always plays a certain type of character - he's never the lead but he has a bunch of lines and really adds something important to the whole vibe of the movie - what's that guy's name?....Anyway.... You can use any sort of honey you prefer for the Lucky Clover. Honey nerds will probably recognize clover honey as the most commonly used variety found easily in grocery stores everywhere. At home, we have a big collection of locally-harvested honey from farmers' markets around the state that we pull from all the time to play around with new recipes. We can't use all of these in the tasting room due to health department regulations, but if you're shaking it up at home, this cocktail is a great opportunity to bust out that Northshore honey in your cabinet. Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends!

Meagen & Mark are away, so the bartenders get to play! Our lovely tasting room tender April was tasked with concocting thematically appropriate St. Patrick's Day specials for our partnership with Shamrock Our Block & Paved Paradise, and she DELIVERED! The spicy chili combined with the rich ginger syrup give this cocktail a kick appropriate for the occasion. Aptly named the Leapin' Leprechaun, this cocktail will make you jump right out of your seat - and perhaps send you on your way to finding some gold at the end of the rainbow. |
