Gabriel Orta and Elad Zvi of the Broken Shaker in Miami Beach like to use handmade vinegars and herbs from their bar's adjacent garden and to lend sour and savory notes to their cocktails. This gin-based drink, which first appeared in SAVEUR DRINK Issue #1 with the story "Miami Heat," gets a refreshing spicy-tart flavor from the addition of pineapple vinegar and bitters.
