Nick Kobbernagel • Ruby, CopenhagenGenever, a distilled, grain-based spirit that originated in Holland, gives this pretty pink aperitif a light malty flavor. Gomme syrup, sometimes known as gum syrup, gives the drink a weightier texture; it's available at smallhandfoods.com.Plus: Ultimate Cocktail Guide
