Refreshing

Seasonal

Who doesn't love pellet ice? Something about it makes me think of drinking Slush Puppies on a hot summer day. While this is not an easy drink to make, the wide range of flavor components really play well with each other to give you a tropical delight that is fun to drink.

Editor's Note

Batavia Arrack brings an earthy, pungent funk to this tropical swizzle. Ginger-lemongrass syrup and Szechuan bitters add a complex, aromatic heat.

This sounds like a fantastic tropical treat! Do you happen to have the recipe for that house-made ginger lemongrass syrup so others can try making it?
