Review:
Chartreuse combines well with apple, ginger and mint in this summertime drink.
History:
Created in 2003 by yours truly after judging a Chartreuse cocktail competition in London and realising which flavours best combine with Chartreuse. Named after my friend, the then President Directeur Général of Chartreuse.
