Fog Cutter
The Fog Cutter is a very fun beverage. We can’t call this a gin exclusive cocktail, but we felt that it was too good for this time of year to not add into our gin series. The botanical qualities of the gin play off of the rum and brandy perfectly. The brandy adds some nice depth and the rum gives the drink some natural sweetness and extra flavor. We went with a white rum but we really think you can’t go wrong with a good dark one either. Don’t limit yourself to the constraints of what we’ve done! The Fog Cutter is a fantastic spring cocktail that has a refreshingly complex nature.
Try one out and let us know what you think!
