This is a fantastic citrusy gin cocktail. The orgeat adds a lovely nutty and aromatic note to this cocktail, making it more sultry. For someone just getting into gin but wanting to try something a little different or for the gin lover with a sweet tooth, try it with richberry. You are surely gonna love the sweetness you wanted in a gin.
Ingredients:
2 oz (60 ml) gin
¾ oz (22 ml) fresh lemon juice
¾ oz (22 ml) Orgeat
Luxardo cherry, for garnish
2 dashes of Angostura bitters, for garnish
Method:
In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, lemon juice and orgeat. Fill with ice, shake vigorously and strain into a coupe glass. Garnish by dropping one Luxardo cherry into the bottom of the glass and add the bitters on top.
Mocktail (non-alcoholic): If you wish to have a delicious non-alcoholic version, please feel free to take the alcohol out and follow the same procedure.
Consume Miracle Berry: Just before digging in, chew 1 or more freeze-dried miracle berry (this can also be done during the preparation of ingredients). Ensure to remove pits to avoid a bitter taste.
Fact: The active ingredient miraculin from miracle berry will turn sour foods such as lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, non-fat yoghurt and other citrus food to taste sweet without adding sugar. We recommend two halves or 2 servings for maximum effectiveness. Make sure to follow instructions from the back of the packaging.
