Dr Jekyll’s Refresh Potion
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.62 / 5
The Dr Jekyll's Refresh Potion is a distinctive cocktail that plays with the coolness and freshness of mint, drawing on a potent combination of mint leaves, peppermint schnapps, and crème de menthe. The result is a vibrant, deeply mentholated drink that promises to invigorate the palate with its chilled, minty essence. Served in a lowball glass brimmed with crushed ice, it provides a sensory contrast with its icy temperature, making it particularly appealing in warm weather or as a bold after-dinner digestif. Its name hints at a playful nod to the infamous literary character Dr. Jekyll, suggesting a transformative experience for those who partake in this refreshingly herbaceous concoction.
