To kick off our first cocktail, we are going to start with a classic cocktail in which the ingredients are most likely already in your kitchen, a Gin Fizz. What you're going to need is...

 Ingredients:

  • 50ml homemade lime syrup or lime cordial
  • lots of ice!
  • 50ml dry gin
  • slice of lime and an edible flower, to make it look pretty...

 

STEP 1
  • Put your most beautiful glass in the fridge 
STEP 2
  • Pour 50ml of the lime syrup (see the homemade recipe, below) or cordial into a jug or tall glass and add a few ice cubes and the gin. Stir until the outside of the container feels very cold.
STEP 3

 

  • Strain the mixture into your chilled glass and garnish with a slice of lime and an edible flower.

 Viola! Enjoy 

 How to make your own lime syrup...

Ingredients: 

  • 2 limes , grated zest and juice
  • 200g caster sugar
  • 40mls water

 

Pop your zest into a saucepan then squeeze the juice from both your limes into a measuring cup - stop when you get to about 60ml, then pop 40ml of water in the jug. Pop this into your pan with the caster sugar and heat very gently, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved. Don't let it boil! Once you're done, strain your mixture and leave to cool

 

Get ready for something sweet, with a Raspberry Mojito Mocktail... 

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 frozen raspberries
  • 5-6 mint leaves
  • 2 tbsp simple syrup 
  • lots of ice!
  • 1/4 cup cran-raspberry juice
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice 
  • 1/2 cup soda water

 

STEP ONE

  • In a tall glass, add your frozen raspberries, mint leaves and simple syrup

STEP TWO

  • Squish the mint, simple syrup and raspberries to combine. If possible, try not to break apart the mint leaves

STEP THREE

  • Fill glass with ice  and add raspberry-cran juice, then the lime juice, and then fill with soda.

STEP FIVE
