Welcome to BrightRx: Cocktail Edition.
Vinegar is widely known as an indispensable tool in the kitchen. It brightens salad dressings and restores balance in dishes. However, vinegar also makes a refreshing, delicious addition to cocktails. Its acidity packs a punch in drinks, and it is a fun and delicious way to transform your cocktails. Shrubs, or drinking vinegars, have been a significant element in drinks for years, dating back to Ancient Rome. Our founder, Aishwarya Iyer, has shared her favorite gin cocktail for us using PARASOL
Ingredients
- 2 oz gin (I love AMASS)
- 1/2 oz Brightland PARASOL citrus champagne vinegar
- 5 oz sparkling water (I love UGLY or SANZO)
- 6-8 mint leaves
- 1 slice of orange
"This gin cocktail reminds me of sweltering New York summers in my early 20s, but has some California brightness added to it with Brightland's PARASOL." - Aishwarya Iyer
Instructions
- 1 Combine the gin and PARASOL in a cocktail shaker and shake well.
- 2 Fill a tumbler glass halfway with ice cubes. Pour cocktail shaker contents over the ice and top with sparkling water.
- 3 Stir, garnish with fresh mint sprigs, and add a squeeze of orange. Enjoy!
