Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare shaker

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice (about 1 cup) to chill and dilute the drink slightly.

2

Combine spirits and lime

Add 2 oz Whitley Neill Handcrafted Dry Gin, 0.75 oz St. Germain, and 0.5 oz fresh key lime juice into the shaker. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add 0.25 oz simple syrup.

3

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker is chilled and slightly frosted.

4

Strain over ice

Fill a highball glass or large wine glass with fresh ice. Double-strain the shaken mixture into the glass to keep the drink bright and free of pulp or small ice shards.

5

Top with tonic

Gently pour 3 oz Fever-Tree Sparkling Grapefruit Tonic over the back of a spoon or directly into the glass to preserve carbonation and create a delicate layered effervescence. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to integrate.

Garnish & Serve

6

Garnish the cocktail with a key lime wheel or wedge on the rim. Optionally slap a spruce of fresh thyme between your palms to release aromatics and rest it on top of the drink.

7

Serve immediately while the tonic is still effervescent. Provide a straw if desired.
