Saturn

Happy weekend!

Hey Treg,
That mug is supercool!
Is this recipe anything like yours?
Saturn
1 1/4 oz Gin (Bombay Dry)
1/2 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Passion Fruit Syrup (Trader Tiki)
1/4 oz Orgeat (Trader Tiki)
1/4 oz Falernum (Velvet)
I really like St George Gin (it’s a botanical gin)-would it work in this drink?
Mahalo

Thanks! New mug :)

Yes that is the same recipe I use. I used Ballast Point Old Grove Gin in mine. It is one of my favorites, try it some time if you get the chance. I also made my own Falernum and Orgeat. I think making your own Falernum really makes the drink. I will post my recipe for it soon, people keep asking me for it. I pretty much stopped using Velvet Falernum, I don't think it has a lot of flavor.

I have not tried St George Gin, but I will pick up some on your suggestion. I was kind of turned off to their brand after spending $60 on their Agricole rum ((Tastes like olives)(YUCK!)). Saturn is one of my all time favorite tiki drinks, I make them all the time!

PS: I think that St George Gin would make a good Saturn, being botanical.
