This cocktail is part of a new series I’m calling Adventures In The Drink Trade! all about pairing crazy flavor combinations which you may not know pair well together or selecting strange cocktails from historic cocktail books and trying them to spec.
This drink is an original inspired by a cocktail I came across in Jerry Thomas‘ Bon Vivant’s Companion which was a simple mixture of Gin and Peach liqueur. I wanted to twist that into something using surprising flavors so I added Orgeat (Almond) and infused the Gin with Dill growing in my garden and the rest is history as they say.
