Ingredients

Rhubarb Simple Syrup:* (See Recipe Notes)

  • 1 stalk rhubarb, diced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water

Rhubarb Pink Gin:

  • 1 ounce rhubarb simple syrup
  • 2 ounces gin
  • dash of aromatic bitters
  • Optional: strawberries as garnish

Instructions

Rhubarb Simple Syrup:

  • Add rhubarb and sugar to a small pot, and fill pot with just enough water to cover the rhubarb. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium. Cover, and simmer until the rhubarb stalks begin to fall apart.
  • Strain sugar-water off of the rhubarb into a container, reserving rhubarb for another recipe if desired. Allow rhubarb syrup to cool to room temperature. (If desired, put syrup in the fridge to speed cooling process.)

Rhubarb Pink Gin:

  • Swirl the dash of bitters in a cocktail glass until the inside of the glass is completely coated.  
  • Stir gin and rhubarb simple syrup with ice until chilled.  Strain gin mixture into the cocktail glass, garnish with strawberry if desired, and serve.
