Introduction

Maurin Quina is a sweet white wine flavored with quinine and cherries and fortified with cherry brandy. It’s a lovely aperitif on its own, but it’s also delicious in this cocktail.

Ingredients

oz. Krogstad aquavit
½ oz. Maurin Quina
½ oz. lemon juice
½ oz. honey-lavender syrup (see Note)
~ Lemon twist, for garnish

Steps

  1. Shake the first four ingredients together with ice, strain into a cocktail glass, and garnish with the lemon twist.

Notes

To make the honey-lavender syrup, combine 1 cup hot water with ¼ cup lavender petals and ½ cup honey. Let cool and strain.
