Herbal Strong

Clove Cocktail是一款清淡、低度鸡尾酒，将sweet vermouth与sloe gin和muscatel wine——一种甜润芳香的葡萄酒——结合，创造出一款不寻常的以葡萄酒为主的鸡尾酒，带有浆果、草本和麝香葡萄层次。酒精度13.65%，是一款温和的aperitivo风格饮品，展现三种葡萄酒及葡萄酒基础配料的相互作用。名字暗示香料复杂性，但sloe gin的浆果特性和muscatel的甜味占主导。

History & Origins

Clove Cocktail is a vintage American cocktail with disputed origins, appearing in mid-20th century cocktail guides as an example of the wine-based mixed drinks that were popular before the dominance of spirit-forward cocktail culture. The use of muscatel wine — a category that encompasses sweet wines made from Muscat grapes — reflects an older tradition of wine-based drinks. No single credited inventor exists for this recipe.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Sweet berry from the sloe gin, the herbal and dried fruit notes of sweet vermouth, and the floral muscat grape character of muscatel wine. Palate: Sweet and wine-rich; the sloe gin's berry tartness is complemented by the vermouth's herbal depth and the muscatel's honeyed grape sweetness. Finish: Short and pleasantly sweet, with a wine-like fade.

Pro Tip

Stir gently over ice rather than shaking to preserve the delicate wine character of the muscatel and the clarity of this low-alcohol cocktail.
