Time 5m

Yield 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 fresh strawberry, plus more slices for garnish
2 ounces gin
1 tablespoon Chamomile Simple Syrup, plus more to taste
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon grenadine
Ice
1 organic edible flower, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the strawberry in a cocktail shaker. Using a muddler, smash the strawberry into a purée. (If you don't have a muddler, you can use a small bowl and the tines of a fork or the handle of a wooden spoon to smash the berry before adding it to the cocktail shaker.)
