Lavender Last Word

A vibrant green modern Last Word cocktail served in an elegant glass with a lemon twist garnish.

Discover a modern take on the classic Prohibition-era cocktail, the “Last Word.” This sophisticated drink originally balanced the botanical notes of gin with the herbal complexity of green Chartreuse, but my version elevates the recipe with a few fresh twists. Swapping in Yellow Chartreuse for a lighter herbal tone, I’ve also added a hint of elderflower liqueur and lavender bitters to bring a floral essence to the mix. Finished with a Luxardo maraschino cherry garnish, this refined cocktail is both elegant and refreshing. Ready to bring history into the present? Find more creative cocktail ideas at MixologyAI.com.
