"The only thing I love more than a good meal is a good cocktail, so i really love when i can combine the two. I know this isn't revolutionary, but if we look at cocktails the same way we look at food and find ways to accentuate our favorite part of a dish thru the bottle, cocktails become more interesting. I love trying to identify that certain ingredient in a dish and finding a way to incorporate it in a cocktail. For this particular drink, I was inspired by a simple cookie that came at the end of my meal at a Chinese restaurant. I used Sakura and Lillet Rose to add layers of soft floral notes to this fruity and refreshing cocktail.
