Drink of the Day: Seaboard

Here’s a nice way to start your week off on the right note. A whiskey and gin combination that blends in some fresh citrus and a little simple syrup to diminish the rough edges and gives you a nice and smooth finished product. This could make a good drink to quaff after that long and productive beginning to your work week. The mint sprig used as a garnish gives it some great aromatic character that puts the icing on an already great beverage.

Hope you all have a great week. Cheers!
