Essentials

My go to New Years Eve cocktail because it’s super easy, tasty, and versatile. The nice thing about classic cocktails is that you can use them as a template and change out the citrus or flavor a simple syrup to make it unique and cater it to your palate. Peep the specs below for a single serving or batched serving (which will make about 10 drinks) for your next party. Cheers!
