The story behind Grappamiel Sour

Grappamiel, Uruguay’s grappa-and-honey liqueur, supplies a distinctly local bittersweet warmth. Lemon reins in the honeyed spirit, creating a compact sour for an after-work aperitif.

This is a Where It's Five house creation inspired by local ingredients and drinking traditions, not a historic national cocktail.
