Garden Variety

Mony Bunni, Tenzing Wine and Spirits | Chicago, Illinois

In a riff on a Spanish-style Gin and Tonic, Mony Bunni’s Garden Variety marries Lustau Blanco Vermut, Novo Fogo Silver Cachaça, fresh strawberries and lime, along with an entire bottle of Fever-Tree Cucumber Tonic Water for a fairly low-proof “summertime patio crusher.”
