The Persephone cocktail is a modern creation of David Slape, a bartender at the renowned New York City bar PDT (Please Don't Tell). The cocktail is featured in The PDT Cocktail Book, making its creation and recipe officially documented. Slape's goal was to create a fruity cocktail that wasn't overly sweet, achieving this balance through the careful combination of applejack, sloe gin, lemon, and Sweet Vermouth.
The Persephone has gained recognition for its unique flavor profile, combining the apple notes of applejack with the tartness of sloe gin and the herbal complexity of Sweet Vermouth. It is considered a modern classic.
It is a cocktail that is enjoyed by many.
