Boxcar – Classic Elegance with a Modern Twist
The Boxcar is a sophisticated cocktail that showcases Conniption American Dry Gin’s clean and complex flavor profile. Paired with the bright citrus of Grand Marnier, the tang of fresh lime juice, and the smooth texture of an egg white, this cocktail is a perfect blend of balance and refinement. A touch of grenadine adds a whisper of sweetness and a blush of rosy color.
Finished with a sugared rim and a zesty lemon or lime wedge, the Boxcar is as visually stunning as it is delicious. Ideal for a festive gathering or a moment of quiet indulgence, this timeless cocktail is your ticket to elevating any occasion.
