  • 1 x Jigger
  • 1 x Cocktail shaker

Method

  • Pour

    Using a jigger, measure all liquid ingredients. Shake them together. 

  • Mix

    Shake the mixture vigorously in the cocktail shaker until the surface of the shaker feels chilled.

    Strain the drink with a cocktail strainer into a martini glass.

  • Top tip

    There's no garnish needed for this cocktail but if you do want to add a little more flair, coat the rim of your martini glass with lemon and sugar and garnish with a lemon wheel. 

  • Grab a bite

    Get some grub in before or while you’re drinking – it slows alcohol absorption.
