Cucumber Lavender Gin Mojito before and after adding lime juice. The color is due to Empress 1908 gin, which uses butterfly pea blossom as a natural dye. Delicious!
Found a new favorite gin: Empress 1908. It’s purple on its own. It turns pink when you add lemon juice though. So if you do it carefully, the lemon juice will go to the bottom, turning it pink. Therefore you’re drink can be:
Closeted Bi
Out Bi
Or, if you add seltzer as well, Space Bi
Thank you for coming to my bar
ROYAL TREATMENT
Fresh fruit, sparkling wine, and a splash of cranberry juice – what more could you ask for? The Royal Treatment is exactly as it sounds – the perfect cocktail for those days you need to treat yourself.
METHOD:
Build in a stemless wine glass.
Garnish with kiwi slices (skin removed), berries, and a mint leaf.
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 oz Empress 1908
3 oz white cranberry juice
sparkling wine
This martini is made with Lillet Blanc, a French apéritif, with notes of orange, mint, and vanilla.

Not the best photo since it's a crop from my insta story. It's Gin + Tonic Day and, as mentioned in the previous post, I've been drinking Empress a lot. So here's an Empress and diet tonic I made to go with my dinner. And I even put it in a Zelda glass. (Note to self: find out if the folks that own the bar that used to have Zelda-themed drinks still have a copy of their old menus so I can recreate them for the Tears of the Kingdom release.)
My favorite brunch cocktail is the Greyhound. @geeksplorer-blog gave me a bottle of Empress for Christmas, so I've been working my way through it. I also had some salt leftover from when I was craving margaritas. So I made a Salty Dog to drink with my breakfast.
If you're wondering about the colo, Empress is indigo from butterfly pea which interacts with citrus to become pink or purple, depending on amount.
Salty Empress
1.5 oz Empress 1908 gin
Juice of one grapefruit (about 4 oz)
Serve over ice in a salted rocks glass. Garnish with an optional lime or grapefruit wheel.
