Equity's Darling Instructions

Equity's Darling is a refreshing and tangy cocktail that is perfect for a summer gathering or a night out with friends. This cocktail combines the flavors of citrus and mint to create a drink that is both light and flavorful.

To make an Equity's Darling cocktail, start by muddling a few fresh mint leaves in the bottom of a glass. This will release the mint's oils and create a fragrant base for the cocktail. Next, add a generous amount of freshly squeezed lemon juice to the glass. The tartness of the lemon juice will balance out the sweetness of the other ingredients.

After adding the lemon juice, it's time to add the sweet element to the cocktail. You can use simple syrup or agave nectar for this step, depending on your preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. Stir the ingredients together to ensure that the sweetener is evenly distributed.

Once the sweetener is mixed in, it's time to add the star ingredient of the cocktail - gin. Use a high-quality gin for the best flavor. Add a shot or two of gin to the glass, depending on how strong you like your cocktails.

Finally, fill the glass with ice and give it a good stir. This will chill the cocktail and ensure that all the flavors are well combined. Serve the Equity's Darling cocktail garnished with a sprig of fresh mint and a lemon wedge for an extra touch of elegance.

Enjoy your Equity's Darling cocktail on a warm summer evening or whenever you're in the mood for a refreshing and tangy drink. Cheers!


Best served in a Red Wine Glass.
