What I’m Drinking Now: Rebekah Winn and the Fresh Prints
Rebekah Winn is co-owner of Duck Dive in San Diego.
As the name suggests, Duck Dive and its ambiance are an ode the rich surf and beach culture of San Diego, where it feels like summer year around. The bar’s cocktail menu provides a refreshing “off the beach” flair on the classics, with a bar program that utilizes locally sourced produce.
Fresh Prints is a bright, effervescent gin cocktail that balances citrus, spice and garden-fresh aromatics. Sipsmith Gin provides a classic juniper backbone, while a house-made pink peppercorn syrup infused with basil adds subtle warmth and herbal complexity.
A touch of oleo saccharum — a traditional bartending ingredient made by extracting the essential oils from citrus peels using sugar — amplifies the citrus character. Finally, a topper of prosecco brings a lively sparkle to the finish.
