The Day Drinker

The holidays are meant for celebrating but that doesn’t mean your drinks should make you sick (since you already ate a few more cookies than you should’ve). Beth Nydick, co-author of Clean Cocktails joins me at the bar at Pig & Prince in Montclair to show us how to make one of her favorite all-around cocktails - The Day Drinker!

Beth’s book focuses on how to create drinks and cocktails using cleaner ingredients so you can genuinely say “salute!” (“to health” in Italian!) Check out our video and get the recipe below!

The Day Drinker
Serves 1

1/2 fresh lemon
1 Tbs. coconut sugar
4-5 fresh sage leaves, plus more for garnish
2 oz. gin (like St. Germaine’s)
2 oz. fresh grapefruit juice, + grapefruit slice for garnish
ice

In a mixer, muddle together lemon, sugar and sage.

Add in gin, grapefruit juice and ice. Shake until your hands are cold.

Pour into a mason jar. Top with more ice and garnish with a grapefruit slice and sprig of sage.

Salute!
