June Gin and Juice
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008 by PeteEvery summer I like to come up with a new drink recipe for the hot weather. This time around I have been experimenting with New Amsterdam Gin and fresh fruit, and I think I have come up with a winning recipe 
that is mix of own experimentation and some help from my bartending friends.
Here’s the recipe:
Juice from half a fresh grapefruit
3-4 fresh mint leaves
3 oz New Amsterdam gin
Muddle fresh mint into the bottom of a 12-ounce rocks or juice glass. Fill glass with crushed ice. Pour in 3 ounces of New Amsterdam gin. Add the juice of half a fresh grapefruit. I like to put my glass right under the out spout of a juice press or electric juicer and let the freshness flow in. Stir and serve. Careful, this drink is very refreshing, but can pack a punch.
