Join the Club

Clover Club Recipe

Ah, drinking. It’s kinda lost its allure. But you can always rekindle the excitement with a little illicit behavior reminiscent of Prohibition Era boozing. Enjoy the Clover Club — a drink sipped behind the closed doors of Jazz Age speakeasies.

Clover Club

Ingredients:
2 parts gin
1 part fresh lemon juice
1 part raspberry puree
1 part simple syrup

1. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker.

2. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with fresh raspberries and a lemon twist. 

3. Put Duke Ellington on the record player, call some friends, and close the curtains.
