Celebrate with a Signature Cocktail
What better way to celebrate our first-ever Day of Giving than with a signature cocktail from our Maggid and resident mixologist, Jhos Singer, in honor of our good foodie friend and supporter, James Beard award-winning chef Michael Twitty.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe strawberries
- 1 large sprig of mint
- 1 large sprig of dill
- ¼ oz molasses
- 2 oz bourbon (Kentucky if possible; I.W. Harper is a good choice)
Instructions
- In the bottom of a Boston or cobbler shaker, muddle one strawberry with the molasses, extracting the juices as much as possible.
- Add the mint and dill, gently bruising the herbs with the muddler.
- Pour in the bourbon and fill the shaker with ice. Seal it and shake vigorously for at least 15 seconds, until the shaker becomes very cold and frosty.
- Double strain into a small ice-filled old-fashioned tumbler (using a Hawthorne strainer and a small kitchen strainer).
- Make a cut in the remaining strawberry and hang it on the rim of the glass.
- If you’re feeling fancy, drop a sprig of mint in alongside the strawberry.
L’Chaim!
