Cocktail Wednesdays: Songbird

Songbird Cocktail

Songbird

1 1⁄2 oz Gin
1 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
3⁄4 oz Green Chartreuse
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice

Shake over ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a Maraschino cherry.

The verdict: The cocktail is a tasty, summery one. The combination of gin, Chartreuse, citrus, and a sweeter liqueur has some reminiscence of The Last Word, but more sweet and flowery, thanks to the elderflower liqueur.
