Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 oz gin
- 2 oz raspberry syrup
- 2 oz lemon juice
- 4 oz soda water
- Fresh raspberries for garnish
Instructions
- Chill two highball glasses by placing them in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before preparing the cocktail.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, raspberry syrup, and fresh lemon juice. Fill the shaker with ice cubes, ensuring they are large and fresh to prevent over-dilution.
- Seal the cocktail shaker tightly and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds to thoroughly combine and chill the ingredients.
- Remove the chilled glasses from the freezer and fill them halfway with fresh ice cubes.
- Strain the shaken cocktail mixture evenly between the two glasses, leaving some room at the top for soda water.
- Slowly top each glass with soda water, pouring gently to create a light, effervescent texture.
- Garnish each glass with fresh raspberries, dropping 3-4 whole berries into the drink or placing them on the rim for an elegant presentation.
- Optional: For an extra aromatic touch, lightly spritz a rose water mist over the surface of each cocktail before serving.
- Serve immediately while the drink is cold and the bubbles are fresh and vibrant.
Tips
- Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients—your cocktail is only as good as what goes into it!
- Chill your glasses beforehand to keep the drink colder longer and create a professional presentation.
- Use large, clear ice cubes to prevent over-dilution and maintain the cocktail's crisp flavor.
- When shaking, aim for a vigorous 10-15 second shake to properly combine and chill the ingredients.
- Pour the soda water gently to maintain its delicate bubbles and create a beautiful layered effect.
- For an extra touch of elegance, consider using fresh raspberries from a local farmers market.
- The rose water spritz is optional but highly recommended for adding a subtle, sophisticated aroma.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the drink at its freshest and most vibrant state.
