Lo Bar founder Aubrey Halliburton says, “My favorite at-home cocktail anyone can make! The Thai-pepper-infused gin gives a nice heat that won’t burn your palate. We use a fresh slice of ginger root, basil, a Thai chili, and lemongrass for garnishes, but citrus, strawberries, cucumbers, and mint also work – the possibilities are endless!”
