GIN AND GRENADINE RECIPES

Steps:

• Put two coupe or cocktail glasses in the fridge to chill. Pour the gin and grenadine into a cocktail shaker, then fill with ice. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels ice-cold. Strain the mixture into a jug, discarding the ice.
• Tip the egg white into the shaker and pour in the gin mixture. Shake well until the egg white is frothy – you can also do this in a food processor or using a hand blender, if you like. Pour the cocktail into the prepared glasses. Skewer the cherries onto cocktail sticks, if using, then use to garnish the glasses along with the pared lemon zest, if you like.

Steps:

• Half-fill a 1.5-litre jug with ice, then pour in the vodka, gin, blue curaçao, lime juice and lemon juice and stir well. Top up with the soda water, grenadine and more ice, then stir again. Half-fill four highball glasses with ice, pour over the cocktail and garnish with the slices of lime.
