Mountains

A refreshing botanical blast. Ellen tasted this and immediately exclaimed "it tastes like mountains!" ... thus the name.

3 oz CapRock Gin
1/2 oz Simple Syrup
2 pinches granulated sugar
3 lime wedges (1 half a lime) cut in half
6 nickel-sized slices of fresh ginger
splash of Chartreuse
Soda

Build in a highball glass. Muddle the ginger slices with a pinch of sugar. Add the limes and another pinch of sugar and muddle again. Add the gin, syrup, ice, and soda and stir. Finish with the splash of Chartreuse.
