Monkey Gland (revisited)

23 February 2009 · 2 Comments

I am inspired by Darcy O`Neil post about Monkey Gland. The scan of newspaper article, detailing the drink, in this post inspired me to tasting Monkey Gland with raspberry syrup.

Actually few days ago I buy two Routin syrups - Lime and Grenadine. The Routin Grenadine is no so common grenadine. It is “Mixed berries” grenadine :) This syrup use … fruit juices (lemon, blackcurrant, strawberry, elderberry, raspberry, redcurrant)… How marvellous a coincidence!

Monkey Gland

45 ml gin
45 ml fresh orange juice
1 bsp. Pernod
1 bsp. berry syrup
Shake with ice, strain and serve.

Monkey Gland cocktail with raspberry syrup has rich habitual taste with some berry notes. It is very interesting drink.

Monkey Gland cocktail with Routin Mixed berries Grenadine is astonishing, amizing cocktail. It has very unusual taste. Heavenly fair cocktail!
