apple crumble gin 70cl

Apple Crumble Gin 40% abv 70cl

Ingredients

  • 50ml Three Wrens Apple Crumble Gin
  • 20ml freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 15ml simple syrup (or to taste)
  • 1 egg (fresh and free-range)
  • 15ml single cream
  • 2 dashes of cinnamon (or ground cinnamon to taste)
  • A pinch of nutmeg (for garnish)
  • Crumbled biscuit or biscuit crumbs (for garnish, optional)
  • Ice cubes

Step-by-Step

  1. Prepare the Glass:
    If you’d like a bit of extra texture, lightly rim your glass with biscuit crumbs by running a lemon wedge around the edge and dipping it into crumbled biscuits. Set the glass aside.

  2. Shake the Ingredients:
    In a cocktail shaker, combine the Three Wrens Apple Crumble Gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, egg (for a creamy texture), and a pinch of cinnamon.
    Add ice cubes to the shaker, close it tightly, and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This helps to emulsify the egg and cream into the drink, creating a rich, smooth texture.

  3. Strain the Drink:
    Strain the mixture into your prepared glass. For a classic flip, use a coupe or a small cocktail glass. The drink should have a thick, foamy top due to the egg.

  4. Add Cream:
    Gently float the single cream on top of the drink by pouring it over the back of a spoon. This creates a layered effect, enhancing the richness of the cocktail.

  5. Garnish:
    Sprinkle a dash of nutmeg over the top for an aromatic finish.
    If you like, you can add a few more crumbles of biscuit on top for added texture and visual appeal.

  6. Serve and Enjoy:
    Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, comforting flavours of the apple crumble in a deliciously boozy flip!
