History

This bittersweet aperitif-style drink's light green hue and garnish suit its name, using gentian, gin, and lemon juice.

Fred Charlet created this cocktail at La Cabane, Strasbourg, France. He states, "With this cocktail, I wanted to remember playing in grandpa's garden hut as a child while my family was sat in the garden enjoying an aperitif. This cocktail is an anthem to our childhood."
