Provence Garden Gin Refresher

This cocktail takes familiar ingredients and recreates them in a fresh new flavor profile that is sure to delight. We layer gin washed with Herbes de Provence Infused Olive Oil, muddled cucumber, citrus, and bitters. Then we garnish with a wedge of grapefruit, cool cucumber, and our Lemon Stuffed Olives for a bright, herbaceous lift.

Ingredients: 

1 cup gin 

½ cup Herbes de Provence Infused Olive Oil 

⅔ cup cucumber, peeled and diced 

1 teaspoon granulated sugar 

¼ cup Lemon Stuffed Olive Juice

¼ cup dry vermouth 

Dash of bitters 

Thinly sliced cucumbers, lemon stuffed olives, and grapefruit wedges, for garnish 

Directions:

Blend gin with our  Herbes de Provence Infused Olive Oil until fully combined, then transfer to a sealed container and steep at room temperature for 24 hours. Chill in the freezer for 2 hours, remove the separated oil, and discard.

Muddle cucumber with sugar in a shaker. Add the infused gin, olive juice, vermouth, and bitters with ice. Shake well, strain into martini glasses, and garnish with cucumber slices, stuffed olives, and grapefruit wedges. Serves 4-6.
