Description
Recipe by Edward Smith, head bartender at a popular American restaurant. This infusion delights with its bright tropical flavor, where the sweetness of ripe mango perfectly harmonizes with the refreshing notes of lemongrass. The aroma features fruity undertones that gently transition into citrus notes. The subdued sweetness adds depth and integrity to the drink.
