Essentials

Themed

A duo of delicious drams from Dillon’s provides the backbone for this take on the Missionary’s Downfall. When I saw the gin, my mind went straight to Donn Beach’s classic, and I couldn’t wait for my order to arrive so I could riff on it. Since Dillon’s is in the Niagara region, I derived the name from the world famous landmark.

Editor's Note

Dillon's honey-pineapple gin and peach schnapps anchor this riff on the Missionary's Downfall. Fresh mint and lime provide a crisp, aromatic finish to this tropical-inspired sipper.
