Tasting Notes
The Sagittarius Cocktail offers a delightful mix of flavors. The Empress 1908 Indigo Gin provides a floral and slightly herbal base, while the additional gin enhances the juniper notes. The orange liqueur adds a citrusy sweetness, perfectly balanced by the warm, spicy hints from the cinnamon-clove syrup. The fresh garnishes of orange and lemon wheels, blackberries, and mint sprigs not only add to the visual appeal but also contribute subtle fresh and fruity notes to the drink.
