The Fletcher Christian

1 oz The Bitter Truth Celery Bitters
3/4 oz St Germain elderflower liqueur
3/4 oz lemon juice
3/4 oz Boomsma Oude genever
3-4 drops Elixir Vegetal (sub Green Chartreuse or omit)

He says, “Trust me.  Just trust me.  I realize this is a very nichey cocktail because four of the five ingredients are things you can’t buy most places and that only cocktailheads have in their bar already.  But this is a terrific drink.”
