The Turf War

1 part gin
1 part soda water

stir on rocks in a shaker and drop into a coupe, add two splashes of Fanta’s Cream Soda and garnish with a tooth pick staffed with as many capers as will fit.

The cream soda represents the sugary bubble gum of 1950’s American youth culture. The capers are the taste of the oceanic waters that surround Puerto Rico. A turf war in your glass between sweet and salty.

*Created specifically for the opening of Vancouver Opera’s production of West Side Story. Served at No. 11. on October 22nd, 2011.
