Happy New Year, and welcome back to the Oaks Bed and Breakfast Herb Infused Cocktail series. This year we hope to bring you some new and delicious cocktails that you can enjoy at home or with us, at one of our events. With 2026, starting off strong we are hitting the ground running with a simple yet sip worthy cocktail.
We had a wonderful Holiday season and our cocktail was the hit of the party for several occasions and are welcoming new guests and events for this year, with another great round of seasonal cocktails to enjoy.
First up is an Elderflower Smash. Four simple ingredients pack a punch and this drink is definitely one you want to sip and savor throughout the evening.
Elderflower Smash
Single Serving
4 - 6 mint leaves
Juice of half a lemon
2 ounces Gin
1.5 Ounces St. Germain Elderflower liqueur
3 dashes of bitter
Add the mint and lemon juice to a shaker cup and muddle to meld the flavors together. Once muddled, pour in the Gin, St. Germain, and bitters. Fill shaker cup with ice. Shake until the outside of the cup is very cold. Pour into an ice filled glass. Garnish with a slice of lemon and or fresh mint.
This drink is so very easy to make and just as easy to sip on while drinking. Enjoy this drink with a delicious meal with friends around the fire pit. These cooler evenings make for a wonderful atmosphere for friends to join together and make memories.
As always please drink responsibly and have a designated driver. Cheers!
