The Three-Ingredient Winter Cocktail | Women's Health Food Blog ...

Twelve-ingredient tiki drinks are fine in the summer, when a little melting ice in your glass feels just right. But it?s winter, and when you want a drink to warm you up from the inside out, you don?t want to wait for it.

Andrew Halden, beverage director for the Whitehall Bar + Kitchen and Highlands restaurants in New York City, has just the thing.

His seasonal riff on a classic cocktail subs beet puree for vermouth, adding a lovely purplish color, cranberry sauce tartness, and a dose of potassium, B vitamins, and antioxidants to your glass.

You can use beet juice from the store, too, but Halden warns to look out for added sugar or the drink might end up too sweet. If you plan ahead, roast some beets with honey and thyme and puree them with a little extra water. And no, Halden reassures, ?this won?t taste like a vegetable smoothie.?

Beet Negroni

1 oz. beet puree
1 oz. Campari
1 oz. gin
fresh rosemary sprig, for garnish

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake thoroughly and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with rosemary.
