Method

Pour

Using a jigger, measure all ingredients and pour into your cocktail shaker without ice.

Shake

Close your shaker and dry shake to whip up the mixture. Open the shaker, add ice, then shake again until cold.

Garnish

Strain the mixture into the glass with ice. Using your knife, cut a lemon peel and place it on a skewer along with a maraschino cherry for garnish.

Grab a bite

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