How to make:
SHAKE first 5 ingredients with ice and strain into ice-filled glass. TOP with tonic water, lightly stir and serve with straws.
| 1 1/2 fl oz | Rutte Old Simon Genever |
| 1/2 fl oz | Green Chartreuse (or alternative herbal liqueur) |
| 1/2 fl oz | Lime juice (freshly squeezed) |
| 1/4 fl oz | Sugar syrup 'rich' (2 sugar to 1 water, 65.0°Brix) |
| 3 dash | Angostura Aromatic Bitters |
| Top up with | Thomas Henry Tonic Water |
Review:
Every ingredient, apart from the sugar, has at some time been consumed for its medicinal qualities. Even the sugar is still used to make bitter tasting medicine more palatable. Some might say that's just what I've done here.
