Recipe from Drinks by Wild, from Craft Cocktail Club
I saw this drink posted, and knew I would make it this weekend. I had seen some great looking nectarines in one of our local butcher/deli places here, along Haarlemerdijk, and knew they would suit this drink perfectly.
We had a couple of friends around for dinner tonight. And I tried not to knock one of them out this time with a rum forward drink.
This was a successful winner.

Muddle nectarine, lemon and honey syrup in a mixing tin, add the mint and give a gentle press, add rye and shake with ice.
