THE RHUBARB 75 ! Ingredients:1.5 oz gin.75 oz fresh squeezed/strained lemon juice.5 oz rhubarb syrup (recipe below)Chilled Champagne or Cava to top Instructions:For the syrup: Combine ¾ lb chopped rhubarb in a saucepan with 1 cup water, 1 cup cane sugar, and 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, then lower heat and cover. Let simmer gently for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Stir in ¼ tsp orange blossom water, replace lid, and let cool to room temp. Refrigerate overnight, then strain with a nut milk bag or a cheesecloth-covered sieve. Reserve the strained, broken down rhubarb for use as a compote, and store both syrup and compote in the fridge. [TIP: you can make the syrup without the vanilla bean or orange blossom water in a pinch. You won’t get the same depth of flavor, but it will be nearly as good.]For the cocktail: Combine all but the Champagne in a cocktail shaker filled with ice.Shake hard for 5 seconds.Pour into a Champagne flute and top with chilled Champagne to taste.Garnish with rhubarb ribbons or a lemon twist.Courtesy: Colleen Jeffers This article was not sponsored or supported by a third-party.
