Mixology

“Somewhere Else”

Tipsy Temptations by Charles M Tappan, Jr

July 1, 2022

Glassware:  Chilled Martini Glass

Ingredients:

2 oz. Junmai Ginjo Sake

1 oz. Roku Japanese Gin

2 oz. Plum Bitters

Garnish:  Cherry

Combine ingredients over ice in a mixing glass.  Stir till the glass frosts, and then strain into a chilled martini class.  Garnish, serve and enjoy.

We all dream of taking that special trip one day; visiting a place that we have always wanted to go but come up with excuses not to.  In homage to taking that dream trip, this beverage takes its inspiration from the exoticism of East Asia and the Land of the Rising Sun.  Sake is exciting and wide ranging in flavor.  The best are crisp, but they can range from dry to sweet, and from floral to fruity.  This libation pairs sake with traditional gin.  It is an updated version of the martini with an Asian twist.  Plum bitters add quintessential flavors that tie the aromatic qualities of the gin and sake together to take them to heights similar to those reached when travelling on a jet.  While the ingredients may be reminiscent of Japan, the drink’s taste is made to convey that idea of transporting yourself to that special destination on your bucket list.  This summer, dare to travel, and dare to go to that “Somewhere Else” because life is short.
