Aloha from Brooklyn!
(Brooklyn Gin)
The fellas at Brooklyn Gin love a good umbrella drink, and they found that this little number cuts through the heat of a long New York summer like no other. A healthy backbone of Brooklyn Gin, with a bit of fresh pineapple and lime, along with a bit of spice and nuttiness, is just the thing when the mercury is high. They'll put their feet up, and have three.
