Review:

This bittersweet aperitif-style drink's light green hue and garnish befits its name and uses the tried and tested combo of gentian, gin and lemon juice.

History:

Adapted from a recipe created by Fred Charlet at La Cabane, Strasbourg, France. Fred says, "With this cocktail, I wanted to remember playing in grandpa's garden hut as a child while my family was sat in the garden enjoying an aperitif. This cocktail is an anthem to our childhood."
