Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a rocks or coupe glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill.

2

Combine ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 tbs Branca Menta, 1 oz sweet vermouth, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup.

3

Add ice and shake

Fill the shaker with crushed or cubed ice (about 1 cup). Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the shaker is chilled and slightly frosty.

4

Prepare glass

Discard the chilling ice or remove the glass from the freezer. If you like, add a small handful of fresh crushed ice to the chilled glass for a slushy-style serve.

5

Strain and serve

Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled glass over fresh crushed ice (or neat if preferred) using a Hawthorne and fine strainer to catch any shards.

Garnish

6

Slap the mint sprig gently between your palms to release aromatics and place it on top of the cocktail. Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim.

7

Optionally express a lime peel over the drink by twisting it above the surface to release oils, then drop it in.
