War of Roses

This recipe is a crowd-pleaser at any time of year, but it is especially fun during the warmer months when topped with a lemon rose garnish.  To make a rose garnish simply make a long peel of lemon with a potato peeler – the longer the better- and then tightly roll it up and spear it with a cocktail stick.

Ingredients

• 2 dashes rose water
• 0.5 oz lemon juice
• 0.5 Oz simple syrup (2:1)
• 1.5 Oz strawberry purée
• 1.5 Oz Upstate Vodka

Method

Shake 10 seconds & double strain into Collins glass with ice, top with soda and stir 2x with barspoon.
Garnish: Lemon rose for the inspired or expressed lemon twist.
