Elephant in the Room Cocktail Recipe

There’s certainly no “Elephant in The Room” that this cocktail takes the cake. Inspired by tropical flavors of lemongrass, swirled with a touch of sweet bitters, this drink will both refresh and replenish your thirst. “An elephant never forgets,” …and neither will you.
