If you are pure of heart, you will enjoy this cocktail using Top Shelf Vodka as a base spirit. Its purity is unmatched and goes down clean and crisp. Cherry Moonshine adds a blush of colour and a pop of fruit flavour. This refreshing cocktail boasts notes of citrus which brightens the flavours of the Ontario made, tart Cherry Moonshine. A few kisses (or dashes) of Rose Bitters adds some floral notes, amplifying the aromatics of this cocktail and really setting the mood for a wonderful evening in. Treat yourself or treat your loved ones, in either case, show some love.

DIRECTIONS

Start by rimming part of your glass’ rim with dried rose petals. To do so, add a little bit of simple syrup to a plate and dab about a quarter of the outer rim of your glass into the syrup. In a separate plate, sprinkle some dried rose petals and dap the syrup coated portion of your glass’ rim into the petals to make them stick in place. Do not rim the whole circumference of the glass, only a portion of it. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add all ingredients, but only 3 dashes of Rose Bitters and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass. Add one extra dash of rose bitters over the cocktail.
