Pucker Up!






This refreshing, zingy cocktail is truly delightful. So much so that between this and the New Jack City, I have completely run out of Kumquat, Oro Blanco and Blood Orange liqueurs. I'm waiting for citrus to come into season so I can make more, but then I'll still have to wait 80 days after that....... phooey,

Pucker Up!
(thanks to Richard Thomason for the name.)

1 part Artemesia Organic Oro Blanco Grapefruit OR Buddha's Hand liqueur
1 part Artemesia Organic Kumquat OR Blood Orange OR Rangpur Lime liqueur
Pucker Up!
1 1/2 parts gin
1 part fresh-squeezed lime juice
2 springs lemon or lime thyme
1 generous lime peel

Muddle or crush one sprig of thyme leaves into the cocktail shaker. Measure all of the liquids into the shaker with generous amounts of ice. Shake well until chilled, pour and garnish with the remaining sprig of thyme and lime peel.
