The Self Portrait
Like the Dutch Golden Age, the spirit of this cocktail is inspired by the period in Dutch history where their culture was the most acclaimed in the world. The Self Portrait, named after one of Rembrandt’s great works, highlights the iconographic qualities of the painting from the drink within. Fresh garden cucumbers layered around beautiful, soft juniper flavors of gin and the tangy sweetness of rhubarb bitters all balanced with citrus notes and sparkling soda.
