The Daywalker
Cocktail by Ross Counsellor
Ingredients:
1oz Deep Eddy Lime
.75 lime juice
.5 homemade cranberry/raspberry simple syrup
2oz Jackson Triggs Ice Wine
Preparation:
Take 1oz of Deep Eddy Lime, .75oz lime juice, .5oz cranberry/raspberry simple syrup. Shake, double strain into a Collins glass(already filled with ice), top with the Jackson Triggs ice wine.
Cranberry/raspberry simple syrup:
1 cup cranberries
1 cup raspberries
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
Let cranberries and raspberries come to a boil, add sugar, whisk everything for about 5 mins, strain into a cup, save the pulp makes a really nice jam!
Garnish:
3 candied cranberries, with a lime peel through a sword
Glassware:
Collins Glass
Cocktail Inspiration:
A double inspiration. First when making the syrup, the syrup came out looking like blood you would see in a movie, my favorite vampire movie is Blade 2 so I named after Blade(aka The Daywalker). Second, the drink is refreshing, and a cocktail that I feel like can be enjoyed on a 90 degree day or a 30 degree day.
