A Little Thyme Off

Anders Erickson | | from Anders Erickson

The A Little Thyme Off cocktail is a refreshing and herbaceous drink that uses a thyme-infused simple syrup as its key ingredient. The syrup adds a subtle, savory flavor to the cocktail, which is then balanced by the tartness of lemon juice and the effervescence of ginger beer.
