The Empress's Birthday Cocktail

Here at the Well Seasoned Table farm, we love any excuse to celebrate. For our founder, Sarah's birthday, we knew we had a make a special signature cocktail for the night. 

This new Empress 1908 Indigo Gin is so beautiful and special, it made the perfect base! This gin is infused with butterfly pea flower, which is a gorgeous blue color. But it turns bright purple/pink when acid (like lemon juice) is added to it! What started as a dark blue cocktail turned out to be this electric pink color, a perfect cocktail to celebrate an empress's birthday! 

We served this with a variety of summer salads on a warm summer evening. Laughter, stories, music, and good food were abundant! But this beautiful and delicious cocktail, featuring our Lemon Meringue Sugar,  really made it feel like a celebration.
