The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $12,500 by August 9.
One of Jettison’s new cocktails on their summer tiki-inspired menu, the Lillypad, is a beautiful modern play on all things tiki. It brings together gin, a bright, Asian citrus, and orange and violet liqueurs. We often see drinks with Creme de Violette fail because the incredibly overpowering flavor (often called “soapy”) takes over. This beauty balances the flavors nicely, and it is a beauty to look at.
After a couple of these, this cocktail will have you asking, “Your lilly pad or mine?”
