Strawberry & Kiwi Gin Mint Muddle

Drinks, Drinks, and Umm, More Drinks! | March 18, 2019 | By foodgalleygab@gmail.com

Strawberry & Kiwi Gin Mint Muddle is actually an older post from about a year ago. However, in Portland, the weather has been AMAZING! Yesterday, it was a balmy 72 degrees for St. Patrick’s Day. Spent it outside at McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse. An old 6-acre farm with barns, gardens, a whiskey shed that looks like it came out of David the Gnome (I started there of course), an incredibly cool looking restaurant, and a small apple orchard that my kiddo runs around in like a maniac. It’s awesome! I went home afterwards and still had to be outside in the fabulous sunshine. That is what inspired me to bust out this old recipe. It’s my most favorite springtime/summertime drink. After some muddling madness, I went outside and started gardening – one of my favorite summer pastimes. If you’re looking for something light and refreshing, Strawberry & Kiwi Gin Mint Muddle is your new springtime cocktail. If you’re enjoying some spring-like weather like us Portlanders, relax in the warmth outdoors with the perfect drink. Cheers! 😉

PS- Also attached some St. Pat pics etc from yesterday

PPS- Every time the weather first becomes warm, I immediately go to Bob Marley. Below is the perfect tune for the start of spring. In college, I’d come home from class, it was the beginning of spring, and my roommate, Keith (RIP), would be blending daiquiris and piña coladas. Leon & Mike would be blaring Bob Marley, and I would walk up to the house with a glass ready and waiting for me. Amazing times… fucking amazing times… cheers to that!
