PARROT TALK

Hendricks, Mint and Lime

Posted On:
 When Beaver the bartender remarked to me this afternoon that he received a text today that said the temperature today seemed liked 111 degrees out, a steamy  day like today have made me think of ways to beat the heat and brought to mind a refreshing drink using some of my favorite summertime ingredients,
namely, Hendrick’s Gin, fresh mint, fresh lime juice (key limes if available), simple syrup and Cointreau….And using one of everyone’s favorite summertime tools, your blender.

 Cheers.

Recipes and ingredients, including the fresh mint, for this and other Henricks cocktails,  are available at the new  Green Parrot Package Store, located at 609 Whitehead St., right next to the Parrot.
