Tucked beneath the charm of historic Gruene, Goodwin’s Speakeasy is the kind of place that feels like a secret worth keeping. This gin-forward beauty brings a little of that Goodwin’s magic home. Texas gin meets warm allspice, cinnamon, rich cherry liqueur, and tart pomegranate for a cocktail that practically begs for crisp evenings, golden sunsets, and one more round. Shake it up, pour it into a coupe, and let fall do its thing. And if you’d rather skip the cocktail shaker altogether? Just go see the barkeep, James, at Goodwins!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz Texas gin
  • 1/2 oz allspice dram (syrup made with 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 3 oz allspice, 1 cinnamon stick)
  • 1/2 oz pomegranate juice 
  • 1/2 oz Heering Cherry Liqueur
  • Dash of simple syrup

Directions

  1. Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker
  2. Shake vigorously
  3. Strain into a coupe glass
  4. Garnish with a rosemary sprig
  5. Enjoy!
