Recipe: EcoNectar
Whether you’re celebrating Earth Day or Easter this weekend, boozy libations should most probably be involved — agreed? Agreed. This cocktail is a fresh, herbal fruit fusion that is a spirited way to celebrate spring.
Ingredients
- 14 oz glass of ice
- 1 1/2 oz gin (our favorite — Cascade Mountain Gin by Bendistillery — is super herb-infused)
- 3/4 oz Monin Spicy Mango syrup
- 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
- tonic water
Directions
- Fill glass with ice
- Add gin & syrup, squeeze in lime
- Finish with tonic water and stir
- Garnish with lime + mango slice optional
- Toast the blooms!



If you can find it, try Q Tonic instead of the usual supermarket variety. It’s amazing and I drink it all the time.
EcoNectar sounds wonderful. Now I need to find the Cascade Mountain Gin in New Jersey. A nice gin is also Seneca Drums from the Finger Lakes in NY.

I will look for it! Bendistillery has excellent vodka as well (Crater Lake Vodka) and their infused liquor rocks — especially if you like bloody mary’s, their pepper infused vodka is ridiculous
They’re my favorite small distillery — just great flavor all around.
