It’s the dead middle of winter. Nothing sounds more amazing than a nice spring day, with warm sunshine, fresh air, and getting active again. While there are plenty of fun winter sports to keep you active, a spring-scented cocktail will also help get you through the winter season. Give this Sea to Sky Martini cocktail a try. You’ll love it. If you aren’t into making one yourself, head over to Grain Tasting Bar in downtown Vancouver, and they’ll mix one up for you.
- 2 oz Gin
- ½ oz Elderflower Liqueur
- 3 Basil Leaves
- ¼ oz Fresh Lime Juice
- ½ oz Simple Syrup
