  • About

This modern cocktail celebrates Montana’s wild ingredients, featuring saskatoon berries—a local fruit with sweet, earthy flavors—and juniper berries, which grow across the state’s rugged landscapes and are a key ingredient in Montana-made gin. Paired with fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and lemon balm, it’s a balanced botanical drink that captures the state’s natural beauty. Look for saskatoon syrup in local shops or online.
