Saffron Gin Sour
Ingredients
- 5cl Saffron infused THE DUKE Rough Gin*
- 3 cl lemon juice
- 2 cl sugar syrup
- 2-3 strands of saffron
- 1 egg white
Preparation
Add gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup and egg white to a shaker and shake vigorously over ice. For more foam, strain out the ice and dry shake again. Then double strain into a tumbler or cocktail bowl and garnish with saffron threads.
The cocktail can be served in a glass either on ice or without ice.
*Production of saffron infused gin:
Add 10 - 15 threads of saffron to a 0.7 l bottle of THE Duke Rough Gin and let it steep for about 1 hour until the gin has reached the desired color. Then strain.
For smaller quantities, reduce accordingly: for a drink with 5 cl of gin, 1-2 strands of saffron are enough.
