Description
Japanese Roku Gin Cocktail with Orange Blossom Syrup is a perfect drink for the cozy holiday season. The botanical flavors from the highly fragrant gin make this drink refreshing and light. Great as a pre-dinner cocktail!
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Roku gin
- 1 ounce Saint Germain
- 1-ounce fresh lime juice
- 1.5 ounces orange blossom syrup
- 4-5 cubes of ice
- 1-3 ounces tonic water, as needed
Instructions
- Squeeze lime for fresh lime juice. Lemon juice will work too.
- Add Roku gin, St German, orange blossom syrup, and lime juice to a cocktail shaker.
- Add ice to the shaker, then gently shake until it's cold to the touch.
- Pour into a cocktail glass.
- Add tonic water and garnish with your favorite herbs and spices! That's it! Enjoy.
Notes
- Use cocktail sugar for a more celebratory feel. Mix the colors of the sugar to match the theme of your party or season.
- Infuse your Roku with other dried herbs like chrysanthemum, dried rose petals, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, or any of your favorite herbs. Mix an herb with the Roku in a glass jar for 24-48 hours before use.
- Making your kaffir lime syrup will elevate this cocktail to another level! Simple mix sugar with kaffir lime leaves at a 1-1 ratio until the sugar dissolve. Let cool before use.
- Adds aromatic bitters for a stronger herbaceous taste. Use only a little bit. A few drops go a long way.
