Recently got my first bottle of Empress Gin, which I am thoroughly enjoying. At first I thought the most interesting thing about it would be the color, but the taste is fantastic, more floral/herbal forward rather than juniper.

The Ultimate Synonym (another Last Word inspired drink):

1.5 oz Empress Gin

1 oz Luxardo Del Santo (because Chartreuse is only getting harder to find...)

.5 oz St. Germain

Put all ingredients into a your preferred vessel with ice, stir, and strain into a coupe. I say this is Last Word inspired rather than a riff since it's 1:1:1.

The color is kinda fun too, almost like a lightly purple/gray smoke in a glass.
