Giffard Menthe Pastille Creme Clear 24% 70cl

Product Information

This delightfully creamy, mint-chocolate drink is often served in a martini glass and garnished with a mint leaf or chocolate shavings. In addition to the juniper/herbal flavor of the gin, the Green Dragon features a touch of creme de menthe, and uses Kummel to blend those two powerful flavors together. You can also grab a syrup that is ideal as a creme de menthe substitute if you want something with a similar flavor profile but no alcohol content. When using the two as substitutes for one another, you may have to adjust the mint liqueur and any other sweeteners in the recipe to create a well-balanced drink. The alcohol is steeped with the mint leaves or extract for several days before being filtered, sweetened, and lightly aged.
