Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet Cocktail

[Craig_From_Cincy]

I made this cocktail as a preprandial this evening. I even made the syrups from scratch. Naturally, I'm wearings the scent while imbibing:

You know what? Not only is it a dry and delicious tipple, this cocktail is in fact very evocative of Blenheim Bouquet cologne. Bravo to the mixologists who designed this cocktail, they had a keen insight into the notes in the cologne and did an excellent job in translating those notes into a cocktail. One change that I would make: instead of expressing oil from the lemon peel into the drink as a finishing touch, I would use grapefruit peel instead.

Note: the syrups are exceedingly easy to make, and will keep for weeks when refrigerated. Any good quality vodka can be used.

Pens BB is a most delightful scent; the cocktail sounds curious but delicious.

That sounds great, on my quick todo list.

Although I just take Juniper Sling straight!
