THE COCKTAIL WE HAD IN MIND WHEN WE COMPOSED SLOWDAYS

IT COMBINES THE REFRESHMENT OF AN ICE COLD LEMONADE AND THE COMPLEXITY OF A FINE GIN 

NO WONDER THIS DRINK HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1882

2oz SLOWDAYS GIN
.75oz LEMON JUICE
.75oz SIMPLE SYRUP
SODA WATER

SHAKE GIN, LEMON, AND SIMPLE
STRAIN OVER ICE IN A HIGHBALL 
TOP WITH SODA
GARNISH WITH SOMETHING PRETTY

AN EASY GIN AND LEMONADE WITH A SPLASH OF SODA GETS YOU THERE AS WELL.


HOTEL GEORGIA



A FAVORITE AMONGST THE ORIGINAL BARTENDERS THAT HELPED TEST OUR GIN

THIS MODERN CLASSIC IS A NUTTY AND RICH RIFF ON A GIN SOUR
2oz SLOWDAYS GIN
1oz LEMON JUICE
.75oz ORGEAT (ALMOND SYRUP)
1 PASTURE-RAISED EGG WHITE

SHAKE EVERYTHING WITHOUT ICE 
ADD ICE AND SHAKE AGAIN
STRAIN INTO A COUPE GLASS
GARNISH WITH GRATED NUTMEG

WHILE ORGEAT IS THE SUGAR IN THIS VERSION, GIN SOURS ARE A GREAT PLATFORM TO GET CREATIVE. SUBSTITUTE A HOMEMADE SYRUP IN ITS PLACE -- OUR FAVORITES INCLUDE RASPBERRY, PLUM, AND POMEGRANATE.

OUR RECIPE YIELDS A MORE APPROACHABLE, CORAL-COLORED VERSION OF THE RECOGNIZABLE CLASSIC

THERE ARE MANY GREAT BITTER SPIRITS AND VERMOUTHS AVAILABLE TODAY, SO THE FLAVOR COMBINATIONS FOR THIS COCKTAIL ARE ENDLESS

1oz SLOWDAYS GIN
1oz BIANCO VERMOUTH 
(GRAN BASSANO IS OUR FAVE)
1oz COCCHI AMERICANO 
(OR ANY BITTER APERITIF)

STIR THE INGREDIENTS OVER ICE
STRAIN OVER A SINGLE CUBE
GARNISH WITH AN ORANGE SLICE

ONE OF THE BEST THINGS ABOUT THIS COCKTAIL IS THAT THE COLOR COMES FROM THE HIBISCUS IN OUR GIN, INSTEAD OF FROM ARTIFICIAL COLORS LIKE IN MOST NEGRONIS.

HOWEVER NOWADAYS IT IS USED TO HIGHLIGHT GREAT SPIRITS IN A FRESH AND EASY TO MAKE DRINK
