About
This cocktail was created in 2012 by Jim Meehan for Chefs Club (Aspen, CO). This drink is bright, slightly tart, and a little bitter. People describe this drink as being perfect as an aperitif on a summer evening — it is dry, but has enough sweetness from the elderflower and grapefruit to balance it out.Cheers y’all!
