Here is a lovely, slightly savory, cocktail. Dill is a classic pairing with aquavit, and the cucumber brightens it up. This is a great cocktail to pair with food, too. It’s perfect with your afternoon nibbles.
Norwegian Spring
2 oz Aquavit – Private Reserve
½ oz Simple Syrup
½ oz Lime Juice
2 slices cucumber, quartered
Sprig of Dill
In a mixing glass, muddle the cucumber, dill and simple syrup. Add aquavit, then shake with ice. Double strain into a cocktail glass, and garnish with a cucumber slice.
