Alaska

Don’t let the name fool you—the Alaska isn’t icy or diluted. It’s a bold, spirit-forward cocktail that’s herbaceous, slightly sweet, and unapologetically strong. Made with gin and yellow Chartreuse, and usually a dash of orange bitters, it’s a lesser-known classic that dates back to the early 1900s. Yellow Chartreuse brings floral, honeyed, and spiced complexity, making this cocktail feel like a Martini with a mysterious, golden glow. Cold, crisp, and quietly intense—like the landscape it’s named after.
