ARCTIC SUMMER
1½ measures gin
¾ measure apricot brandy
¼ measure grenadine
4 measures sparkling bitter lemon (I used lemonade)
Unlike other layered drinks I’ve had this year, I had no
desire to stir the one-of-a-kind ARCTIC SUMMER cocktail. The layers were the
best thing about the cocktail. Every couple gulps was something new. The first
few were lemonade, then I tasted the gin, then the apricot… The grenadine settled
at the bottom, so the last few sips were sweet, ending it on a perfect note. You
really have to drink the whole cocktail to appreciate it. Don’t skimp on the
ice and don’t quit early. But do drink the ARCTIC SUMMER in the sunshine, while savoring the last of summer.
