Land of Happy Cocktail

“Sweet, herbaceous and acidic all at once, this is a great pre-dinner cocktail before a nice glass of white wine,” says 312 Chicago head bartender Jenn Knott of her cocktail. She experimented with using a syrup instead of a shrub, but the latter ended up keeping the drink more fresh and tart. White balsamic vinegar, made in Italy from the trebbiano grape, is mixed with white wine vinegar and cooked at a low temperature to retain its clearish color.

Ingredients in The Land of Happy Cocktail

1 12 oz Fords gin
1 12 oz Honeydew-basil-white balsamic shrub*
Prosecco, to float
Lemon wedge, to rim glass
Basil salt (chopped fresh basil combined with coarse salt), to rim glass

Vice Royalty Cocktail

Beverage director Taha Ismail wanted to do a seasonal riff on a Pisco Sour that was clean and refreshing. Fresh mandarin and yuzu juices make for a citrus-y cordial that offsets Strega’s piney profile, while Peychaud’s bitters meld nicely with the pisco’s floral notes. “This drink has enough complexity without being overwhelming and [is] very consumable on any patio,” he says.

Ingredients in The Vice Royalty Cocktail

1 12 oz Macchu pisco
14 oz Strega
1 14 oz Mandarin cordial*
12 oz Fresh lime juice
12 oz Egg white
4 dashes Peychaud’s bitters
1 oz Pere Ventura rosé
 
Garnish: 
Mint Sprig
Glass:

*Mandarin cordial: In a blender, combine 3 cups mandarin juice, 2 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 ¼ oz Everclear, 1 oz yuzu juice and ¼ tsp xanthan gum, and blend until smooth.

Mrs. Robinson Cocktail

For this cocktail at Portland Ore.’s Bacchus Bar, Andrew Call pours local Aviation American gin because its complex, herbaceous flavor plays off the tart lime and grapefruit. “Adding some house-made pineapple simple syrup gives it a welcome hint of a day on the beach,” says Call. “[And] topping it off with dry sparkling wine and Peychaud’s bitters makes all the flavors come together and light up your tongue.”

Ingredients in The Mrs. Robinson Cocktail

1 oz Aviation American gin
1 oz Pineapple syrup*
34 oz Fresh grapefruit juice
34 oz Fresh lime juice
3 dashes Peychaud’s bitters
2 oz Dry prosecco 
 
Glass: Flute

How to make The Mrs. Robinson Cocktail

Add the gin, syrup, juices and bitters into a shaker with ice and shake until chilled.
Strain into a chilled flute.
Top with the chilled prosecco.

*Pineapple syrup: Peel and core 1 whole pineapple, then cut the meat into chunks. Add 1 cup white sugar, toss to coat in a glass bowl and store, covered, in the refrigerator overnight. Combine 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan, simmer until the sugar is dissolved, and remove from the heat.
