Arugula-Infused Zero-Alcohol Gin
Crafting this arugula-infused zero-alcohol gin is Michelle Duvall's first step in creating her Secret Garden Sour.
Ingredients
2 cups water, plus a bowl of ice water
1 cup arugula, washed
1 (750mL) bottle zero-alcohol gin alternative
Directions
Prepare a bowl of ice water and set it in the sink.
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan on the stove. Submerge the arugula in boiling water for 45 seconds, then plunge it into the bowl of ice water. Let it chill for two minutes then strain and place in a quart jar.
Muddle the arugula and pour in the gin alternative. Place the lid on the jar and let it sit in a dark and cool place for 4 to 6 hours.
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Gently press the arugula to release more liquid.
Return the arugula-infused zero-alcohol gin to its original bottle, or store it in a new bottle or jar. Store it in the fridge for up to one month.
