Alpine Pass

Alpine Pass

Ingredients

• 30ml Altitude Alpine Dry Gin
• 25ml Apple Juice
• 20ml Fresh Lemon Juice
• 15ml Blueberry Purée
• 10ml Vanilla Syrup
• 30ml Soda Water
• 3 dashes Absinthe
• Fresh Mint Leaves
• Garnish: Mint sprig and fresh blueberries

Method

Prepare the glass: Fill a large tumbler or copa glass generously with crushed ice.

Build the flavour: In a shaker, combine Altitude Alpine Dry Gin, apple juice, lemon juice, blueberry purée, vanilla syrup and fresh mint leaves. Add ice and shake hard until beautifully chilled.

Pour: Strain over the crushed ice and top with soda water for a crisp alpine lift.

Finish: Add three dashes of absinthe over the top for an aromatic mountain edge. Garnish with fresh mint and a scattering of blueberries.

Altitude Tip

For the ultimate après-ski serve, lightly clap the mint before garnishing to release its oils. A touch of rosemary smoke over the glass also adds a rich chalet-style finish that pairs perfectly with the blueberry and alpine botanicals.
