Absorbine_Sr Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Mikey, you are a New Year beast!! I pulled out the Modern Mixologist book and mixed a 323, named after the address of the restaurant in NYC where it was created. 2 oz rosemary infused Hendrick's gin 2 oz fresh lemon sour 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar reduction (balsamic and sugar reduced to syrup over heat. 2 fresh basil leaves 2-3 fresh strawberries or fresh seasonal fruit (I used clementine segments, these are mentioned in the write up). In a mixing glass add fruit, basil and balsamic reduction. Muddle Add gin and lemon sour. shake with ice until well blended. Double strain into a chilled cocktail coupe. Debbie and I both enjoyed it, and I'll put this one in our "like" list. Edited December 31, 2011 by Absorbine_Sr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
