The Haymarket cocktail plays with the notion of a beer cocktail and refines it. Lime and cucumber give this innovative cocktail a refreshing, subtle edge. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 cup water |
1 (1-inch) piece cucumber |
2 tablespoons suze (bitter french liquor) |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
3 ounces pale ale (such as titan's great divide) |
1 slice cucumber |
Directions:
1. Combine sugar and 1/4 cup water in a microwave-safe dish; microwave at HIGH for 2 minutes. Stir until sugar dissolves; cool.
2. To prepare cocktail, place cucumber piece in a martini shaker; muddle. Add Suze, juice, and 1 1/2 tablespoons syrup; reserve the remaining syrup for another use. Cover and shake. Strain mixture into a highball glass with ice. Top with beer; garnish with cucumber slice.
