Comments
Every ingredient here lives at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger without exception. At roughly $3 per drink (premium gin aside), it's an honest aperitif cost. The five minutes is genuine—no peeling, no muddling beyond a mint sprig, just pour and stir. This is not a dish; it's a single cocktail designed for adult entertaining, and it resets immediately after serving, making it perfect for a weeknight happy hour or weekend gathering.
