Sweet Pea Cocktail

We recently met up with one of our favorite bartenders, Cecil Usher of Mindful Hospitality, to see what he had percolating as the weather warms up. After a little simmering, shaking and sipping, a new spring drink, the sweet pea cocktail, came into existence. It’s ideal for the green of the spring season.

About the Sweet Pea Cocktail

The Sweet Pea cocktail is not just about great taste. It’s also about the experience, which Mindful Hospitality specialize in. This drink’s pale green hue makes it visually appealing, while the smooth, aromatic flavors offer a refreshing alternative to traditional cocktails. Whether you’re hosting a garden party or enjoying a quiet evening, this cocktail is sure to impress your guests. This cocktail is also perfect for those looking to explore creative, floral-inspired drinks. The combination of Bluecoat Gin, lime juice, sweet pea syrup, and Lillet Blanc creates a harmonious blend of flavors that’s both refreshing and elegant.
