“A Joyous Thing is an ethereal ode to the Easter season’s joy and whimsy… The brightness of lemon and light sweetness of lychee, balanced by the subtle earthiness and structure of green tea, soft botanicals of gin and Lillet, and complex honeyed notes of Benedictine. Egg whites (pretty appropriate for the holiday) add a rounded, velvety element.” — Melanie Wiesen, Bar Manager
