“The earthy sweetness of the carrot juice plays beautifully with Wicked White Whiskey, which has an almost sweet, more complex nose than others that I had been experimenting with,” says Ali Koppel, resort mixologist at Crystal Springs Resort in Hamburg, New Jersey. “I found it very fun to mix with, here adding the pickled flavor of a dill syrup I created.”
