How to Enjoy It
Sukkah Hill recommends Etrog chilled, over ice, or as a base for bright, strong cocktails. Try it in place of triple sec in a margarita or a Sidecar, in a citrus martini with vodka, or with gin and tonic for a floral highball. Top it with sparkling wine for a festive spritz, or with soda water and a sprig of mint. It pairs well with honey cake, lemon desserts, smoked fish and fresh cheeses. For a party, chill the bottle and set out small glasses, or batch a pitcher of the signature cocktail ahead of time so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays, and a small pour after dinner is an easy way to end the evening on a sweet note. Keep the bottle in a cool, dark place after opening.
