Myer Creek Cocktail

3 oz Gin
1 oz Aperol
1 oz Triple sec
1 oz Lime juice
Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well and strain/ pour into a coupe glass. Phenomenally refreshing, can also do over ice. Tastes almost like grapefruit juice. Enjoy!

History

Invented while on a one-year forced sabbatical/ Garden leave. Experimented with many liqueurs, fruit juices and liquors with Aperol. Created this as the winner. I prefer Booths Gin, Beefeaters is also great, or Brokers gin for a little more of the Botanicals.
