This cocktail is inspired by Phil’s favorite childhood candy. Lemon Heads have an interestingly tart and sweet citrusy-lemon flavor. Hopquila is an complex spirit framed with citrus-laden hoppy character. The aroma and flavor of the herbaceous perennial humulus lupulus, aka hops, is brought out by steeping it in twice-distilled barley to create a vivacious spirit that provides the perfect complex, mildly bitter, citrusy backbone for this cocktail. Add some fresh lemon juice and a bit of sweetness and you have a fun, flavor-packed adult version of that great children’s candy.
