A mixed drink, bitter yet pink, first mixed at the Townhouse, a bar in Emeryville, California. An off-shift bartender surnamed "Jasmine" asked for a nice dry drink:
Jasmine
Pour ingredients ovr crushed ice and shake.
Strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish with a twist of lemon peel.
I enjoy ordering this drink when I'm out at a lounge. You'll likely have to call out the ingredients to the bartender, but once it is served, the pink hue will tempt someone down the bar to order it. However, the Jasmine has the tartness of grapefruit juice wrapped around its essence of gin, which may well cause the unexpecting to grimace.
