The goal: to create something super refreshing, very slightly sweet, to showcase my new Camerises de Menaud liqueur.
Because it is a salt gin base with macerated cherries, this liqueur has a more delicate flavour than a product made entirely of fruit.
To create the cocktail, I chose products that would not alter the spectacular color of the cherry, while slightly enhancing the sugars and providing a sparkling floral freshness.
