Ingredients
- 2 oz gin 60ml
- 1 oz lemon juice 30ml (freshly squeezed)
- ¾ oz rhubarb syrup 22ml (or a little more/less to taste)
- 5 mint leaves plus one more or small sprig for garnish
Instructions
- Place the gin, lemon juice, rhubarb syrup and mint leaves in a cocktail shaker with some ice.
- Shake everything together for a minute or two to chill well and gently muddle the mint without breaking it up too much and making it bitter.
- Double strain (ie use a fine mesh strainer over the glass) into a coupe or cocktail glass, ideally chilled. Slap the mint for garnish in your hand to bring out oils then top the drink/side of glass as garnish.
Notes
You can optionally add a drop of egg white to the ingredients before shaking to give you a slight foaminess to the top of the drink. If you prefer a longer drink, you can serve in a tall Collins glass, over ice, and top up with soda water.
