History

Ginseng bitters add fresh, aromatic notes; Parfait Amour means 'perfect love'. Does the garnish offer a sweet treat?

Vernalagnia, a word derived from "vernal" meaning of spring and "agnia" meaning desire, captures the feeling of renewed energy and heightened romantic attraction that arrives with longer, warmer days. Increased sunlight is known to boost serotonin and dopamine, leading to improved mood and sociability. Spring, in nature, is a time of growth, fertility, and renewal, and human behavior often mirrors this rhythm. In the realm of cocktails, this seasonal shift naturally calls for lighter, brighter drinks featuring fresh citrus and floral notes.
