Viper Sounds

Sugar snap peas are one of my favorite versatile ingredients to infuse into cocktails. Their nuttiness and grassy notes lend a bit of approachable intrigue to any classic cocktail template and beautifully pairs with just about any spirit–from lighter-style whiskeys to robust agave spirits. For the Viper Sounds cocktail, I wanted to create a fun Gimlet variation that doubles down on the nuttiness and herbaceous-ness by pairing the snap peas with the butterscotch-ey notes of miso and honey, along with the herbaceous, greenness of a London Dry-style gin.
