Ingredients
1 oz club soda
3/4 oz St. George Botanivore Gin
3/4 oz Plymouth Sloe Gin
3/4 oz lemon juice
1/2 oz 2:1 simple syrup
1 egg white
Angostura Bitters
Directions
Pour club soda into a coupe glass. Dry shake the remaining ingredients, then add a large ice cube and shake again until it’s chilled. Strain and pour into the coupe glass, and dot with Angostura bitters.
Notes
This is fabulous. It feels like a spring or summer drink, but would also work well for brunch with the berry flavor from the sloe gin. I use 2:1 simple syrup (2 parts white sugar, 1 part water) since it lasts longer. I also added bitters—I keep some Angostura bitters in a small dropper bottle, to allow for more precise placement and design. A beautiful drink.
Variations
I’ve seen recipes for the egg white version with only sloe gin, and I’m hesitant to try it. I think the equal parts gin and sloe gin make more a much more balanced drink. I also tried the Educated Barfly’s version, which doesn’t use egg white and is served over ice in a collins glass. It was far too tart for me!
