 “Incumbent Tears”

Monica Lee

Mercy Me

Inspiration:

This cocktail is inspired by the record number of women, particularly women of color, running for office in recent elections, many of whom won and overturned conservative incumbents. Opponents target them as different and dangerous, and a former President hurled racist and misogynistic insults at them. But female nominations continue, showing that the country is ready for progressive change, and women themselves are feeling more empowered and confident to run.

Ingredients:

Catoctin Creek Watershed Gin, Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye, lemon juice, apple juice, simple syrup, 18.21 tart cherry & saffron bitters, Scrappy’s cardamom bitters
