The muddled mission is a very pretty, gin-based cocktail that features fresh strawberry and elderflower liqueur. The resulting flavours are sweet, fruit forward, floral, vibrant, and with a light herbal undertone. I see this as a lovely summer cocktail, perfect for enjoying the sweet, ripe strawberries of the season. Then again, I could see myself enjoying it any time of the year.
For this cocktail to stay true to form, it is important to use a gin with a juniper-based flavour profile. It was developed using Anchor Junipero gin. However, a common household brand substitute for this would be Tanqueray dry gin.
I really like this cocktail to have a bold and fruity strawberry flavour on top, so I recommend using quite a large strawberry, or two smaller ones. Also, I reduced the amount of elderflower liqueur by half to avoid making the cocktail overly floral and sweet.
The little bit of Yellow Chartreuse in this cocktail adds such a huge amount of depth. This herbaceous French liqueur is a key component in making this cocktail what it is.
To make the muddled mission cocktail, use a muddler to mash the strawberry into a purée in your cocktail shaker. Add in the gin, elderflower liqueur, yellow chartreuse, and freshly squeezed lemon juice, along with a few ice cubes. Shake well for about twenty seconds, then strain into a coupe glass. Then, optionally, garnish with a small strawberry and/or some tiny flowers.
This cocktail was developed by Joaquín Simó in 2008 for the famous Death & Co cocktail bar in New York. It is featured in their highly acclaimed cocktail book of the same name.
