Recipe
Smash
The Smash calls for alcohol of your choice (we like rum or a non-alc Sapir), fruit, fresh herbs and a dash of sugar. So go wild or stick to the classic using lemon and fresh mint, either way you can’t go wrong.
The Smash is the choose-your-own-adventure of cocktails, and a fantastic choice for last-minute entertaining. This recipe calls for both your alcohol and fruit of choice, combined with simple syrup and a mix of herbs. The classic calls for lemon and fresh mint, but we say throw caution to the wind and experiment with whatever you might have in the back of the fridge.
