Sage Advice
This cocktail was given to us by master mixologist and close friend of Rachael's, Nick Mautone, who wrote the book, Raising The Bar.
Nick tells us that this is a "Simply extraordinary cocktail with wild spicy and peppery notes. Sage is widely available but not as widely used in mixology."
