Kumquat Ginger Rose Cocktail

  

Serves 1

INGREDIENTS

 2 oz dry gin

1 oz Lillet Rose

½ - 1 oz Kumquat ginger syrup (with several slices of candied kumquat). Add more syrup for a sweeter drink, less for a dryer one.

 

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Place the syrup (including a few slices of candied kumquats) into a cocktail shaker and muddle a few times to extract all the flavor out of the kumquats.
Add the gin and Lillet, fill with ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a martini glass or small coupe; garnish with fresh or candied kumquat slices.
