Gin Rocket

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! This is a fantastic way to celebrate being Irish, springtime and elevating your Gin with flavors from the garden. The result is this fantastic herbal green cocktail. You will taste the anise from the fennel and pepper from the arugula. If your market does not have arugula, then substitute with dandelion greens. A big thank you to The Educated Barfly who got the recipe from Portland area bartender Kate Bolton. Éire go Brách!
