From March 18 – 31, Hard Rock Stadium will welcome one of the Magic City’s most popular annual events: the Miami Open. Now in its 35th year, this two-week, all-star tennis competition brings together world-renowned athletes, celebrities, tennis fans, and food and drink from some of Miami’s best restaurants.
Kiki on the River {450 NW North River Drive, Miami; 786.502.3243} will pop up there this year, and they’re pairing all their Mediterranean fare with custom Miami Open-themed cocktails from Hendrick’s Gin, like the Ace. When you’re there watching a match, snag one of these tasty beverages and then go home and make another one for yourself. We’ve got the recipe, below!
Here’s how it’s made:
Combine 1 ounce Hendrick’s Gin, 1⁄2 ounce simple syrup, and 5 ounces Owen’s mint/cucumber/lime in a shaker. Shake well. Pour over ice. Garnish with a mint sprig and a slice of cucumber.
