  • 15ml St Germain Elderflower Liqueur
  • 30ml Juno Gin Extra Fine
  • 45ml tonic (or more to taste)
  • wedges of lime

Curious 75: Curiosity Gin

One of our favourites is still the first we ever developed for our own gin. It’s the Curious 75, a version of the classic French 75 using Curiosity Gin Recipe #23.

Ingredients

  • 30ml Curiosity Recipe #23 Gin
  • 15ml sugar syrup
  • 15ml lemon juice
  • dash orange bitters
  • sparkling rosé
  • orange peel for garnish

Method

Pour all ingredients except the sparkling rosé into a shaker over ice. Shake together and strain into a chilled coupé glass or champagne flute (150ml). Top up with the rosé.

 

Breakfast Martini: Lyttelton Distillery

This was created by bartender Salvatore Calabrese when his wife insisted he have some toast and marmalade instead of just a martini for breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 15ml Cointreau
  • 15ml lemon juice
  • 50ml Peninsula Gin
  • 1 tsp marmalade (orange but no rind)

Method

In a shaking glass, add the marmalade, gin, lemon juice and Cointreau. Next, break down the marmalade by mixing with a bar spoon before adding ice and shaking well. Shake for slightly longer than normal to mix the marmalade properly before straining into a chilled martini glass. Extra marmalade, a single slice of thin toast and one semi hardboiled egg can be eaten alongside.

 

Tom Collins: gin gin.

This classic cocktail is one of the oldest, dating back to the 1880s. It's a tasty drop and easy to make at home.

Ingredients

  • 50ml gin
  • 25ml lemon
  • 25ml sugar syrup (or any flavour syrup you like)
  • soda water

Method

Add all ingredients to a tall glass, top with soda and stir gently.
