Mint Tulip
This is a cocktail I like to make, and let’s face it
sometimes the ladies needs a posh drink two. The alcohol is totally optional.
This is by far the easiest recipe of the bunch, the only thing that takes time
is the sugar syrup that needs to be boiled and cooled.
·
200ml Freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
·
180ml Sugar Syrup – equal quantities of sugar
and water brought to boil the cooled· Handful of Fresh Mint – plus extra for decoration
· 5ml Bitters
· 3 Cups of Ice
· 100ml Vodka – optional
· Lime Slices for decoration
Method:
Place everything into a blender and blitz to a slushy
consistency. Fill chilled glasses with ice cubes and mint leaves before topping
them up with the slushy mix. I sometimes freeze the lemon juice in ice cube
trays with a mint leave so everything is extra chilled.
