Mixologist Sampler
1 sampler

The Mixologists’ sampler includes: 4oz of pepquinos, 30 Szechuan buttons, and 25 green shiso leaves.

These specialty produce options are all great cocktail mixers, and will allow you to take your mixology to new heights.

Pepquinos, small 1 inch cucumbers that look exactly like tiny watermelons, are an intriguing garnish and bring refreshing cucumber flavor to drinks they’re added to.

Green & purple shiso leaves add a complex herb flavor, interesting shapes and deep colors to drinks. They taste a bit like a mix of fennel & mint.

Sechuan buttons are perhaps the most unique product in this sampler. Their petals add a little herb flavor, but also carry with them a powerful (but not unpleasant) tingling sensation that will have your guests gasping in wonder. Use them to make your cocktails an experience, not just a drink.

Applications: Shiso cocktails can be made by muddling or blending the leaves in. Use the shiso leaves to take herby cocktails like the Mojito in new directions. Szechuan button cocktails shock and amaze your guests by adding a little electric zing to their drinking experience. Pepquinos can be blended into refreshing cucumber drinks or used as an innovative garnish.

Season: Pepquinos are in season from April to November. Sechuan buttons and shiso leaves are available year round.
