Cocktail Base

Sonoma Aromatics

Method

Cocktail Base

  1. 1

    Muddle aromatics

    In a mixing glass, add the peach slice, basil leaves, and the thyme sprig. Gently muddle 6–8 times to release aroma and a little juice from the peach without pulverizing the herbs.

  2. 2

    Add the dry gin, dry vermouth, stone fruit liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup to the mixing glass.

  3. 3

    Fill the mixing glass with ice (approx. 6–8 cubes). Stir briskly for 20–30 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.

Finish & Garnish

  1. 4

    Strain the chilled mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass to remove herb bits and peach solids.

  2. 5

    Carefully top with 2 oz chilled Champagne or other dry sparkling wine; pour gently to preserve effervescence.

  3. 6

    Add 1 dash of Angostura bitters on top of the foam for aroma and a hint of spice.

  4. 7

    Express a lemon twist over the cocktail (squeeze the oils over the surface), wipe the rim with the twist, then drop it into the glass. Garnish with an edible flower or micro basil if desired.

  5. 8

    Serve immediately while sparkling and aromatic.
