The Airmail is a Champagne-topped classic from the early days of air travel…

This version, Plum Airmail, reimagines the drink with Blacklisted Aged Plum as its base, shifting the profile of this classic cocktail from tropical to richly fruited and softly spiced. Honey syrup amplifies the spirit’s natural stone-fruit depth, fresh lime keeps the drink bright and precise, and a final lift of Champagne brings elegance and effervescence.

The result remains light on its feet but more layered and contemplative than the original.

Ingredients:
• 1 1⁄4 oz Blacklisted Aged Plum
• 1⁄2 oz Fresh lime juice
• 1⁄2 oz Honey syrup (1:1)
• Dry Champagne or other high-acid sparkling wine, to top

Shake Blacklisted Aged Plum, lime juice, and honey syrup with ice. Double strain into a chilled coupe. Top gently with Champagne and garnish with a mint sprig.
