Metropolitan

A twist on the popular Cosmo cocktail, the Metropolitan uses Barr Hill Gin, instead of the standard vodka, and a touch of thyme syrup. It's a modern take to this classic cocktail with elevated botanical complexity and herbaceous notes.

Ingredients

2oz Barr Hill Gin
.5oz Cointreau
.5oz Cranberry Juice
.5oz Thyme Syrup*
.75oz Lime Juice

Preparation

Shake all ingredients with ice. Double strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a sprig of fresh thyme.

*Thyme Syrup - in a sauce pan, combine 1c sugar, 1c water and 4-5 sprigs of thyme. Gently heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and let the thyme steep for 30 mins before straining and bottling.
