Domaine Canton, the ginger-based liqueur posted an interesting cocktail in my newsfeed… The Gold Rush.

GoldRush

 

Being the inquisitive sort, I decided to roll my own… The original recipe is as follows:

1.5oz. Domaine Canton

1.0oz Bourbon

0.5oz Lemon Juice

Shake the ingredients with crushed ice, vigorously. Strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a Luxardo Maraschino cherry.

So I sipped the libation… a trifle too sweet for my taste, so I amped up the lemon and used Rye instead of Bourbon… Ahhhh… now that is a refreshing cocktail, with an exotic, Far East hint…

Enjoy!
