What to do with fresh figs? I’ve got you covered. I recently had an opportunity to #partner up with unclevals to create a summer cocktail using their Botanical Gin - made with juniper, cucumber, lemon, sage and lavender. Its perfect for any summer sipper like a traditional Collins so why not incorporate some fresh figs 🙌🏾 Cheers y’all!

• 1½ oz Botanical Gin

• ¾ oz Fresh Lemon Juice

• ¾ oz Fig/Peppercorn Syrup (Recipe Below)

• 1 Fresh Fig (Garnish)

tools:

• Shaking Tins

• Jigger (Japanese Style)

• Hawthorne Strainer

• Fine Strainer

instructions:

Combine all ingredients except for soda water in a shaking tin with ice. Shake for 5 seconds. Double strain and pour into a collins glass over ice. Top with soda water (I used @lacroix). Garnish with a sliced fresh fig. Serve and enjoy.
