About the recipe
Ingredients
Ingredients
25ml-50ml little batch Chai Spiced Plum Syrup (depending on your preference for sweetness - start with 25ml and add more if needed)
Juice of a half a lemon
One egg white or - for a vegan version - 50ml aquafaba*
A single measure of gin or vodka if you're making a cocktail
Crushed ice.
Garnish ideas:
Edible flowers, frozen plum slices, a slice of lemon.
*aquafaba is the liquid from a tin of chickpeas, often used as an egg substitute in vegan baking and cocktails. If you'd rather leave the egg white or aquafaba out, you could make this into a non-alcoholic spritz by just adding 50ml of sparkling water once the drink has been poured.
Preparation
Method
Add 25ml of the syrup, all of the lemon juice, egg white or aquafaba (and spirit) to a cocktail shaker.
Make sure it's closed and then give it a good shake (if using egg white you’ll need to shake for longer to make sure it has been liquidised effectively)
Add the crushed ice and give it a good shake again before pouring into a short glass - if using egg white you may wish to pour over a strainer
If you're not using egg white or aquafaba, add your sparkling water now.
Give it a taste and check if the sweetness is to your liking - add a little more syrup if needed.
Garnish.
Enjoy!
