I saw this post about a cocktail called the Gospel. I'm not sure how it would be?

• 2 oz tequila
• 3/4 oz lemon juice
• 3/4 oz sage syrup
• 1/2 oz triple sec

Sage syrup

• 1 cup sage
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup water

In a small saucepan bring all ingredients to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer for 5 minutes. Strain, contain, let cool and refrigerate. Use in place of real insight when the yokels get too preachy.

Pour all liquid ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake like a sheep without a shepherd for 10-12 seconds. Fine strain into a martini glass neat. Garnish with a sage leaf and don’t believe the folk in white coats until the man in the white hat hears from the guy with the white beard. Could take a minute, maybe millennia.

I find sage can be medicinal in large amounts, but it may go with the agave notes in tequila. Has anyone ever tried this?
