Aegean Dream

🥃
0

Shake Gin, Aperol, Mastika, Lemon Juice with ice. Strain into a rocks glass.

The Aegean Dream is a contemporary classic that captures the essence of Turkey's sun-kissed shores. This sophisticated cocktail combines gin with Aperol and mastika liqueur, enhanced by Regans' orange bitters, fresh lemon juice, and a sprig of rosemary for garnish. It’s a harmonious blend designed to evoke the feeling of watching a sunset over an Aegean island. I created this drink while exploring local flavors, using mastika sourced exclusively from Chios in Greece and Alacati in Turkey. Enjoy it as you gaze out at the Aegean Sea. ~ Denem Orhun
