2 oz Bourbon, Medley Brothers
3⁄4 oz Hop Syrup (see notes)
1⁄4 oz Dry vermouth, Dolin
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 ds Hop extract (see notes)
Instructions

Build in a shaker, shake well with big ice to beat up strawberry. Strain (or fine strain) in to a chilled, stemmed glass.

Notes

Very Spring and refreshing. Hone in on just the right amount of hop extract to get some resinous aftertaste without being too sticky.

To make the hop syrup: Muddle .5 oz Whole Amarillo Hops into 1 qt sugar. Mix with 1 qt water, strain.

To make the hop extract: Soak .25 oz Simcoe whole leaf hops in 151 for 15 min. Strain.

Curated this slightly - moved the instructions for the hop syrup and extract to the notes section. Thanks,  Zachary
