Ingredients

For the ginger syrup

  • 100 g sugar
  • 100 g water
  • 50 g ginger weigh it peeled

For the assembly of the cocktail for 2

  • 2 sprigs mint bruised so they release flavour
  • 2 parts ginger syrup
  • 2 parts lime juice
  • 2 parts gin
  • 3 parts carbonated water

To decorate

  • mint
  • lime slices

Instructions

Ginger syrup

  1. Finely grate the ginger and put it in a pot with the water and sugar and let it boil lightly for 10min.

  2. Pass through a sieve and let it come to room temperature.

Assembly of the cocktail

  1. Put everything but the carbonated water in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until it's really cold. This is not 100% needed but it helps in that then the ice in your drink won't melt as it cools it down but rather its job is just to keep the temperature given to the drink in the shaker.

  2. Pour onto a glass with ice and top with carbonated water

  3. Decorate with mint sprigs and lime slices
