Cocktail Roulette: Shine Gimlet

Thank god Boardwalk Empire is back... I was definitely missing a little Nucky in my life.  It's helping fill the gap between Seasons 1 & 2 of Game of Thrones.  What would we do without HBO?

As part of our last Cloak & Dinner: The Time Machine, we traveled right back to the Prohibition Era and our master mixologist Isaac cooked up his take on a Gimlet, albeit with moonshine like they'd have made it back then.  Enjoy!

Shine Gimlet

• 2 oz Moonshine
• 1oz Fresh Lime Juice
• ¾ oz Simple Syrup
• 2 cucumber slices, muddled
• 6 mint leaves, muddled
• 2 dashes celery bitters

Muddle together cucumber slices and mint leaves.  Add in your celery bitters, lime juice, simple syrup & moonshine with a heavy helping of ice.  Shake vigorously and strain into a coupe. Garnish with a cucumber slice and/or a fresh mint leaf.
