Whisky Cocktail: Loretto Limonade
This one usually goes down nicely with the ladies at any time or with pretty much anyone after a big meal when you want something sweet. While the recipe calls for a shaker, don’t let that put you off if you don’t have one, a thermos will do just fine.
You’ll need:
- 2 parts Bourbon (as ever, Benchmark is good for the purpose)
- 1 part Midori (melon liqueur, available at most supermarkets)
- 1 part fresh lime juice
- 3 parts apple juice
- Chilled ginger beer (not ale!)
- A tall glass
- A fair bit of ice
Method
Fill your shaker (thermos/whatever other creative solution you’ve come up with) about half way up with ice then add everything but the ginger beer and give it a good old shake. Grab 2-3 ice cubes for the tall glass then strain the contents of your shaker into the glass and top up with the ginger beer.
