When we were asked to craft a cocktail for the fantastic crew over at Alibi Boston and Monkey 47 Gin we jumped at the chance. Why? Because we always jump at the chance to have fun!

Not only did we just have fun, we had a ball! Sipping and shopping our way through a Monday night we hung out with cool vendors like the sexy tea maven Lisa at J’enwey Tea, adorable skin expert Dr. Gretchen Frieling, and the super cool hosts, the repurposed fashion experts at Gogorbaj. We even ran into the sassy duo Chicharron and Caviar!

But, back to our cocktail! Now that the days are getting longer, we are longing for fresh warm weather cocktails! A gin & tonic is the perfect summer refresher. We decided to go green and mix even more botanicals into the already herbal Monkey 47 Gin! Green Chartreuse blends perfectly into this clean tasting gin. We garnished the drink with a lovely rose as we anxiously await for things to bloom. And when things do start to bloom, we will definitely head back to Alibi and enjoy their patio. We hope you’ll enjoy our cocktail recipe. 😉
