Bell Pepper Gimlet
The bell pepper is not something that often turns up on a cocktail menu in any form, be it juiced, muddled, or as a garnish. This signature creation may just change that. With their sweet and savory flavor profile, bell peppers pair beautifully with the clear, crisp notes of Smirnoff No. 21 Vodka. Steven went with green peppers here, but feel free to experiment with any of the bell pepper’s other colorful varieties.
Please drink responsibly. SMIRNOFF No. 21 Vodka. Distilled From Grain. 40% Alc/Vol. The Smirnoff Co., Norwalk, CT.
