Rhuby Beauty: Pittsburgh Chefs Create Rhubarb, Honey, & Mint Recipes
Who knew rhubarb could be so versatile? By pairing it with local honey and fresh mint, three local chefs created dinner, drinks, and dessert.
Ingredients
SERVINGS: 8 cocktails
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 5 mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup Rhuby Liquor
- 1/2 cup light rum
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- Cinnamon and sugar
- Prosecco
Instructions
Fill a small pot with water and sugar, and stir in the mint leaves and honey. Bring to a simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Once cooled and strained, pour ΒΌ cup of the honey-mint simple syrup into a bowl. Mix in Rhuby Liquor, light rum, and fresh lime juice.
Mix cinnamon and sugar. Using a wedge of lime, moisten the rims of eight 14-ounce glasses (Taucher recommends mason jars), and dip each into mixture.
To serve, shake cocktail mixture with ice in a drink shaker. Strain, and divide between the glasses, leaving enough space to top off each glass with Prosecco.
