Botanical accents like celery, lime, watermelon, and apple meld with the herbaceous tarragon gin and yellow chartreuse for a picture perfect sip that showcases the natural beauty and freshness of your home grown garden. Talk about a drink that’s both sophisticated while also embracing the fun of the warmer seasons. Give this spritely cocktail some palate time when the sun is shining bright in the sky and the Earth is blooming all around you. Maybe you’ll even prepare it with a book in hand to help you escape away to paradise.
What is Tarragon Gin?
Tarragon-infused gin serves as the base for this Tarragon Gin and Yellow Chartreuse Cocktail recipe, introducing a distinctive herbal layer beyond the typical strong, juniper profile of gin. By infusing the gin with tarragon, the cocktail gains subtle notes of anise and a touch of sweetness. When combined with the fresh watermelon-apple syrup and the vegetal notes of celery juice, it’s a home-run. Plus, it also complements the bright lime and the herbaceous undertones of the yellow Chartreuse that top off this drink.
