Delia Reyes says
Do you muddle the peppercorns and sage leaves?
Angela and Mark says
No, we like these flavors to be on the subtle side, so we don’t muddle them and simply shake them with the other ingredients. But if you prefer that the Sage and peppercorn flavors are more assertive, you can muddle them. Enjoy!
