Instructions

Shake over ice and strain into coupe. Garnish with thyme sprig (or perhaps something that could represent a lily pad?)

Notes

Inspired by a friend waxing poetic on the divisive Lord of the Rings character while drinking at Three Dots and a Dash in Chicago. Definitely a top-down recipe, starting with yellow Chartreuse ("…bright blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow"). Drew heavily on the Monk's Respite and Puerto Rican Racer for rum-based precedents.
