Garnish the cocktail with one sultana grape berry inside already washed & cut from the twig's side. If you have more than one berry serve a few as a sidecar.
Before preparing make sure there is ice in your mixing glass and that the glass is chilled enough. Fill up the coupe glass with crushed ice. Pour the ice out of the mixing glass together with the condensate. Stab the blocked ice using an ice pick into the mixing glass. We need split ice because it is the one which won't have a water film on its surface. As a result, it suits better for cooling having the same volume of dilution. Check water leftovers in the mixing glass using a strainer. Now to ingredients!
First, prepare a lemon peel and squeeze it out into the mixing glass. Discard the used peel.
Add the following ingredients:
Hayman's Old Tom Gin - 75 ml
Lustau Manzanilla Sherry - 15 ml
Galliano L'autentico - 5 ml
Regan's Orange Bitters N6 - 6 drops
Now we stir checking the mixing glass temperature change with our fingers from time to time. Trust yourself in this process. Try your cocktail with a bar spoon and you'll understand whether the cocktail is ready or you need to stir a bit more.
Pour the ice out of the coupe glass and pour the cocktail in using a strainer. Garnish the cocktail with one sultana grape berry inside already washed & cut from the twig's side. If you have more than one berry serve a few as a sidecar.
