STRAWBERRIES IN DECEMBER

The whole reason to get into making preserves is to capture a moment of summer in a jar. Every time I pop open something I put up the summer before- peaches, strawberries, Concord grapes, tomatoes-I feel like I’m stealing a little of the season back. This drink was inspired by just that: I wanted to bring early summer back for a moment, and what better way than in a cocktail?
