Penicillin Cocktail
The Penicillin cocktail was created by Sam Ross in the mid-2000s, when he was working at New York City’s famous Milk & Honey bar. The drink quickly gained a traction as a modern-classic cocktail, and it’s now served around the world, proving its status as one of the 21st century’s biggest cocktail success stories.
It is a twist on the classic Gold Rush Cocktail made with bourbon, ginger and honey.
