Love Potion recipe

We’re no witchdoctors, but we think our Love Potion cocktail—created by Manager Anna—is sure to win round your Valentine.

If your cocktail cabinet’s been rather depleted, any gin will work here. The rose water is there to added a bit of extra magic – although you can skip it if your partner’s already hooked…

Our recipe makes one cocktail, so don’t forget to double up if you’re making one for your beau!

You’ll need: a Boston shaker, a Hawthorne strainer, a coupe glass

INGREDIENTS

50ml pink gin
15ml Grand Marnier
15ml lemon juice
30ml pomegranate juice
1 drop of rose water (5ml)

METHOD

1. Chill your coupe glass (or whatever glass you have to hand) with crushed ice if you have it. Otherwise place in the freezer for 5-10 minutes – just don’t forget about it!
2. Shake all the ingredients in a Boston shaker until the tin frosts over, then strain into the glass. Alternatively, you could stir the ingredients with cubed ice in a jug until chilled.
