At Nest, we love any chance to raise a glass to our amazing customers, clients and team. So, we do it every Friday from 12:00-4:00pm in our Sun Prairie Shop! We made up this fresh and fabulous cocktail recipe during the pandemic, and it has remained a favorite.
If you can't join us in the store, here is how you can enjoy a Smitty Cocktail wherever you are.
Smitty Cocktail
2 ounces Bombay Sapphire Gin
1 ounce St Germaine
1/2 ounce fresh lime juice (about half of a lime)
4 ounces tonic water
Lime slices or wedges, mint or rosemary sprigs for garnish
To make one at a time:
Combine all ingredients over ice in a high ball glass and gently stir. Garnish with lime slices or wedges, mint sprigs as desired.
To make in advance: (let’s face it, you’re going to need this much, so just go ahead and make a pitcher)
16 ounces Bombay Sapphire Gin
8 ounces Saint Germaine
4 ounces fresh lime juice
Pour 3 1/2 ounces of the mixture over ice, into a highball glass and top with 4 ounces of tonic water. Garnish, as desired.
The perfect party cocktail!
