Review:

A bittersweet savoury twist on the classic White Lady with a refreshing cucumber flavour.

History:

Properly named "Suze It Like A Lady", this is a recipe created by Michael Hajiyianni at Ruby, Copenhagen, Denmark. Michael says it is "based on one of the first Gin cocktails I ever had during my early days at The Refectory Bar at The Plymouth Gin Distillery. Swapping out orange liqueur to make a simple savoury twist on the classic White Lady."

Alcohol content:

  • 1.2 standard drinks
  • 16.52% alc./vol. (33.04° proof)
  • 16.5 grams of pure alcohol
