Refreshing

Seasonal

I made a batch of Matt Pietrek’s “analog” fassionola and it is so delicious. It was one ingredient I hadn’t tried before, but when I was almost out of passionfruit syrup, I decided it was time to give it a try. I’ve tried a few delicious drinks using it so far, and wanted to try out a recipe of my own. The final result is packed with terrific fruit flavour while still giving the herbaceous gin room to shine. Recommended brands: •Sipsmith London Dry Gin •Matt Pietrek/Cocktail Wonk Analog Fassio...

Editor's Note

A Tiki-style sour that swaps rum for herbaceous London Dry Gin. The star is Fassionola, a complex tropical fruit syrup that bridges the gin's botanicals with bright pineapple and lime.
