About
This cocktail was created by Isaiah LaBelle (@onesipclub) and me. After he sent me his Salted Banana Passionfruit Campari Gimlet, we kept talking about other ways to mess with the template and eventually landed on banana and miso. The pairing may seem wild, but miso and banana work really well together. The miso adds saltiness and a little savory depth that pairs well with the rich banana. Gin and lime keep everything bright and bring it all back to familiar Gimlet territory.Cheers y’all!
