Recipe:

• 2 oz J. Carver Runestone Rye
• ¼ oz Honey Syrup *
• ¼ oz Yuzu Puree
• ½ oz Cardamom Syrup **

* To make Honey Syrup: Dissolve 1 cup honey in 1 cup water over heat. Store for up to 2 weeks.

** To Make Cardamom Syrup: Smash and lightly toast approximately ¼ cup of cardamom pods (Moxy recommends a mix of black and green pods).  Combine toasted pods with 1 cup of Demerara sugar and 1 cup of water. Stir over heat until sugar is dissolved.  Allow to cool, then allow syrup and pods to infuse for a few days in the refrigerator. Strain off pods and use or store for up to two weeks.

Instructions:

Pour all ingredients into shaker tin, add ice, and lightly shake. Strain into a tin mug, over crushed ice.  Garnish with a dried apple chip.

Moxy - Minneapolis Uptown is the first of two planned Moxy Hotels in Minneapolis, which promise "all the comforts of your own living room but with the exciting action of a backstage pass."  The design is "rock-chic," featuring a full bar and sidewalk patio. Cheeky and well-made craft cocktails, and a daily happy hour from 4 until 7pm, will ensure this becomes one of Uptown's newest hot spots.
