Day 86: Bichon Frisé

Day 86: Bichon Frisé

  • 2 oz grapefruit juice
  • 1 oz St Germain
  • 1 oz vodka

Ah, another of the elusive vodka drinks that only tend to get made at parties. I made this on request from a friend who wanted something with vodka and no high calorie mixers. The high grapefruit juice concentration in this helps balance the sweetness of the St Germain.

Day 70: Valkyrie

Day 70: Valkyrie

  • 2 oz rye
  • 1/2 oz Averna
  • 1/2 oz Cynar
  • 1/4 oz St Germain
  • dash grapefruit bitters (or twist of grapefruit peel)

I expected this one to be too bitter for me, but the St Germain gave it a nice sweetness that I really liked. A great after-dinner sipper, plus it’s got a great name.

Day 54: 15 Second Punch

Day 54: 15 Second Punch

  • 1 oz gin
  • 1 oz St Germain
  • 1 oz grapefruit juice
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz Campari
  • 1/2 simple syrup

I saw my bottle of St Germain in my cupboard when I went to grab another bottle and thought “oh, I haven’t made a drink with St Germain in a while”. So I found this recipe. It was a nice balance of sweet with a slightly bitter aftertaste.
