Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker with no ice. Dry shake. Then add ice and wet shake. Double strain into coupe glass. Garnish with an expressed and discarded orange peel or atomized food-grade orange oil.

 

*Linden tea Peach syrup

  • 2-3 peaches
  • 1 cup water 
  • 0.5 lbs sugar
  • 1 bags linden tea 

Cook down peaches with sugar and water at medium heat until peaches become slightly translucent. Empty contents of tea bags into syrup and continue to cook until peaches are completely translucent. Take off heat and let syrup cool. Strain syrup through cheesecloth and a chinois strainer.  Store in a sealed airtight container in the refrigerator. Use within 2 weeks.

 

**Sour green apple juice

Juice 6 apples and strain through a fine mesh strainer and cheese cloth. This should yield half a  quart of juice. Add around 4-5 grams of citric acid to achieve similar acidity of lemon juice.
