Drink Recipe

Leo the Lion

A cool, herbaceous aperitif that layers a fresh mint note from white crème de menthe over the dry, slightly austere backbone of dry vermouth with a rounded whisper of brandy. It pours clear with a faint pale-green sheen and tastes bright, lightly sweet, and subtly warming. Worth trying if you enjoy a refined, minty twist on a classic stirred vermouth cocktail.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Dry Vermouth
  • 0.5 oz Brandy
  • 1 tsp Crème de Menthe Blanche Liqueur

Instructions

  1. Fill a mixing glass halfway with ice cubes to chill your ingredients.
  2. Pour in the dry vermouth, brandy, and white creme de menthe into the mixing glass.
  3. Stir the mixture gently with a stirring spoon until well combined and adequately chilled.
  4. Strain the cocktail into a chilled cocktail glass to remove the ice.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy your Leo the Lion cocktail.
