About This Cocktail
A bright, botanical twist on the classic Gin Fizz. Amalfi lemon and Belvoir elderflower carry the citrus backbone, finger lime pops like champagne pearls on the tongue, and fresh verbena lifts the whole cocktail into something unmistakably Mediterranean. Crisp, aromatic, and made to be sipped in full sun.

Serving Tip
Crack the finger lime open at the table and scatter the pearls across the top just before serving — that champagne-like pop on the first sip is the whole point. Slap the verbena between your palms before garnishing to wake up the essential oils and lift the aroma.
