The Story Behind The Turmeric Rickey
The Turmeric Rickey was made for summer. It combines London dry gin, lime juice, and soda water with Von Humboldt’s Turmeric Cordial, a new liqueur infused with turmeric, the wellness ingredient du jour.
Created by Steven Grasse, the mastermind behind Sailor Jerry and Hendrick's gin, Von Humboldt's turmeric spirit is easy-drinking enough to sip on over ice. Here, it adds a lovely, vegetal quality to a classic Gin Rickey. We gilded the lily with a slice of cucumber, though a wedge of your juiced lime would also do the trick.
