Cardamom Garden

AI-generatedMediumCoupe

A cooling, aromatic escape where spice and green freshness blur the line between cocktail and daydream.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz cognac
  • 3/4 oz lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup
  • 3 pods, crushed cardamom
  • 8 fresh leaves mint

Method

  1. 11. In the bottom of a shaker, gently muddle mint leaves and crushed cardamom pods with simple syrup — press softly, do not shred.
  2. 22. Add cognac and fresh lemon juice to the shaker.
  3. 33. Fill with ice and shake vigorously for 12 seconds.
  4. 44. Double-strain through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe to remove all mint and cardamom solids.
  5. 55. Taste and adjust with a few drops of lemon juice if needed before serving.

PRO TIP

Slap the mint sprig garnish against your palm before placing it on the drink — the impact releases the oils and amplifies the aroma with every sip.

Garnish — fresh mint sprig
