Akvavit, Kina-Blanc, Orange Liqueur, lemon juice, honey syrup. This is my ‘local spirits’ take on the Great Northern, created by Jessica Gonzalez at Death & Company, NYC. The Akvavit’s caraway character harmonizes beautifully with the elderflower and bitter tones in in the Kina-Blanc. The Quadruple Sec connects the whole like arms in a hug. Corny, perhaps, but it’s the feeling I get!
