Not to be confused with the classic magnolia blossom cocktail — a mix of gin, grenadine, lemon and cream — this magnolia cocktail is a recipe of my own creation, inspired by my homemade magnolia syrup. A simple mix of gin, magnolia syrup and freshly squeezed lemon juice, the cocktail is slightly sweet, a tad astringent (not dissimilar from an aviation), with delicate floral and ginger notes from the magnolia.
