Ingredients
50ml Shortcross Wild Clover Gin
20ml lemon
10ml Lillet blanc
5-8ml (bar spoon) of sugar syrup
Cardamon pods (4)
Fresh mint leaves
Method
Muddle the Cardamon pods to break them in a shaker. Add Shortcross, lemon, Lillet and sugar syrup. Add ice cubes and shake very hard for about 90 seconds (aiming for around 30-50ml of dilution to soften everything). Add in sh mint leaves and gently shake for about another 30 seconds until the mint is bruised but not too damaged
Double strain into a Martini or coupe glass.
Garnish with a generous twist of orange. We served with our home-made chilli bitters as a side garnish, which can be added to give it even more spicy kick!
