Instructions

Inspired by the lush fairways and the prestige of the PGA Master's in Augusta, the Augusta Green Jacket cocktail is a refined, refreshing drink that pays homage to this iconic golf tournament. Its vibrant green hue is as captivating as the Green Jacket itself, symbolizing achievement and excellence. This cocktail combines the crispness of vodka with the sweet, herbal notes of green tea, mint, and peach – a nod to Georgia's famous fruit. Ingredients: - 2 oz vodka (preferably a premium brand for smoothness) - 1 oz green tea syrup (you can make this by simmering equal parts sugar and water with green tea leaves, then straining) - 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice - 1/4 oz peach liqueur - Fresh mint leaves (about 6-8 leaves for muddling plus a sprig for garnish) - 2-3 slices of fresh peach for garnish - Ice - Soda water (optional, for a lighter version) Instructions: 1. In a shaker, gently muddle the mint leaves with the green tea syrup and lemon juice to release the mint’s aroma. 2. Add the vodka, peach liqueur, and a good amount of ice to the shaker. 3. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled highball glass filled with ice to remove the mint leaves and any large ice shards. 5. If desired, top with a splash of soda water for a slightly fizzy effect. 6. Gently stir to combine. 7. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a few thin slices of peach on the rim of the glass. Glass: Serve in a highball glass to showcase its beautiful green color and to provide ample room for the effervescence if soda water is added. This presentation not only pays tribute to the elegance of the Augusta Masters but also invites the drinker into the refreshing and storied spirit of the game. The Augusta Green Jacket cocktail is a perfect serve for golf enthusiasts and cocktail aficionados alike, embodying the spirit of competition, the joy of spring, and the beauty of camaraderie. Enjoy it as you watch the tournament, or serve it at your next gathering to impress your guests with a taste of Augusta’s finest moments.
