Nectarine & Mint Drink
Inspired by the nectarines we bought today, and the Peaches & Herb drink in the Absinthe cocktail book, we concocted this drink this evening. Muddled nectarine slices and mint, rum, some simple syrup (our nectarines were very tart), lime juice, and rhubarb bitters (peach bitters would be good, but we had rhubarb). It's still a little early for nectarines, but it was quite a tasty drink. Garnished with a slice of nectarine and sprig of mint.
Strobist info: 430EX @ 105mm from above front right, bounced off the back; LP120 bounced off the ceiling as fill. The backdrop clearly shows the directionality of main light, but I like the shadows it gives. With a bit more room, I could move the white background further away and light it separately.
