A smash is a cocktail style where fresh fruit and herbs are muddled before shaking, the same technique behind the famous Gin Basil Smash. This variation is lighter, combining tangy mint and lemon with sweet grapes and our Surrey Dry Gin. Late summer in a glass.

- Top with a splash of pressed apple juice.
