Recipe by Dave Muller and Lana Porcello If it grows together, it goes together: Sweet and sour from the rhubarb and herbaceous from the fennel, this drink is pure harmony.

Ingredients

1/4 fennel bulb, untrimmed, coarsely chopped
1 (375-ml) bottle dry vermouth (preferably Dolin)
1 large rhubarb stalk, thinly sliced, plus more, shaved, for serving
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup gin (preferably Fords)

Instructions

Combine fennel and vermouth in a glass container (save vermouth bottle). Cover and chill 2 days. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve back into bottle.
Bring rhubarb, sugar, and 1/2 cup water to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until mixture is pink and slightly syrupy, 14 –16 minutes. Let cool, then transfer to a blender and purée until smooth (you should have about 1/2 cup rhubarb purée).
Combine 12 oz. fennel-infused vermouth, rhubarb purée, lemon juice, gin, and 2 cups ice in a large pitcher. Stir until cold. Pour cocktail into ice-filled old-fashioned glasses and garnish with shaved rhubarb.
