Half-Moon Cocktail

SERVINGS: Makes 1 Drink

Genever is a clear distilled spirit from Holland that's typically made from a mixture of malted grains flavored with juniper (the key flavoring in gin). It's often compared to good single-malt whiskey. Pineapple gum syrup is available at smallhandfoods.com.
