Instructions

Add all the liquid ingredients to a cocktail shaker, then fill the shaker with crushed ice.
Shake the drink until the shaker is almost too cold to hold. You won’t need to do this as long as you would for a typical cocktail since the crushed ice will cool the drink faster.
Pour the entire contents of the shaker, including the ice, into an old-fashioned glass. Garnish with mint, and enjoy! Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
