By Jack Wakelin
Ingredients
- 2 handfuls ice
- 30ml/1fl oz gin
- 30ml/1fl oz vodka
- 15ml/1 tbsp grenadine
- 15ml/1 tbsp blue curaçao
- 15ml/1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 15ml/1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- soda water
- lemon slices, to garnish (optional)
Method
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour all the ingredients except the soda water and lemon slices into the shaker over the ice. Shake vigorously for 8-10 seconds.
Strain the mixture into a collins glass full of fresh ice using a hawthorne cocktail strainer. If you don’t have a strainer, any kitchen sieve will work just as well.
Top with the soda water to taste and stir gently to mix the drink. Garnish with a lemon slice or two if using.
