Story
After you asked for interesting gin cocktails with Amaro Nonino, this emerged as one of the lighter and more elegant ideas in the set. The concept started as a Bees Knees-adjacent sour, then shifted toward something with more alpine and citrus complexity once Nonino became the center of the structure.
Method
- Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice.
- Shake hard until cold and lightly aerated.

- Garnish with a lemon twist.
Notes
