The Botanical Bullet is a study in contrast. Built on rye whiskey, this cocktail opens with spice, heat, and structure - then softens dramatically as elderflower liqueur and lemon come into play. The result is a drink that moves fast on the palate, hitting with intensity up front before easing into something floral, clean, and surprisingly gentle.

Rye provides the backbone, delivering that unmistakable peppery snap. Elderflower acts as the counterweight, smoothing the edges and adding a light botanical sweetness that feels modern rather than perfumed. Lemon sharpens the transition, keeping the drink crisp and focused. Stirred and served over ice in a rocks glass, The Botanical Bullet is sophisticated without being heavy, bold without being aggressive, and incredibly easy to keep sipping.

This is a cocktail for people who like flavor that shows confidence - precise, intentional, and well-balanced.

Shaken or Stirred? Stirred. This keeps the rye smooth and lets the botanicals unfold naturally.
