Thanks! Looking for a recipe with St. Germain and this looks like a winner.
I never have a problem inventing with St. G, but this one came from Imbibe magazine, spring 2010, and is very good:
1 1/2 oz rose hip infused vodka (make your own)
1 oz St G
1/2 oz each fresh lime and lemon juice
1 egg white
(original recipe called for 1 tsp powdered sugar but it doesn’t need it)
Shake w/o ice for 5 seconds, add ice and shake hard for 19 sec. Strain into cocktail glass and garnish with several drops of Peychaud’s bitter.

We recently had dinner at a favorite Houston seafood restaurant that served a signature drink called a Red Door. IT was made with raspberries, St. G and Vodka with a mint leaf garnish and a bit of powdered sugar. Very lite grapefruit tasting with a red color served in a frosted martini glass.
