Instructions

Embrace the natural beauty and rugged character of New Hampshire with the Granite Roots Fizz, a cocktail that brings vegetal notes and earthy undertones to your glass, celebrating the state's dense forests and granite formations. Served in a chilled highball glass, it's as refreshing as a hike through the White Mountains. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (preferably a New Hampshire local craft gin, if available) - 1 oz Freshly squeezed lemon juice - 3/4 oz Maple syrup (representing New Hampshire's rich maple sugaring heritage) - 1/2 oz Yellow Chartreuse - 2 slices of fresh cucumber - 5 fresh basil leaves - Sparkling birch beer (a nod to the birch trees of the region) - Ice cubes - Garnish: 1 thin slice of cucumber and a small sprig of basil Instructions: 1. In a shaker, muddle the cucumber slices and basil leaves to release their flavors. 2. Add the gin, lemon juice, maple syrup, and Yellow Chartreuse to the muddled mixture. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with fresh ice cubes, making sure to catch any cucumber or basil bits. 5. Top up the cocktail with sparkling birch beer, gently stirring to combine. 6. Garnish with a thin slice of cucumber and a sprig of basil on the rim of the glass. 7. Serve promptly and enjoy the layered flavors that pay homage to the Granite State. This cocktail balances the botanicals of the gin with the earthiness of the maple and birch, while the Chartreuse brings a complex herbal quality. The cucumber and basil offer a refreshing vegetal counterpoint, appealing to any nature enthusiast looking to savor a taste of New Hampshire's great outdoors.
