What's going on with the recipes on here, shots show 5/12 of a shot. Looks like the drinks have been scaled back to 25 ml shots in the ml but still at 30ml in the shot. How can you measure 5/12 of a shot.
We work in increments of 2.5ml (1/12oz) to achieve the best-balanced recipe and fit the stipulated glass. The 12.5ml (5/12oz ) measure is commonplace in UK recipes as it is half the legal 25ml spirits measure. To aid more accurate measuring we will be releasing our own purpose made jigger in September 2020. This website and indeed our jigger display both oz and ml, but ml measures are obviously more straightforward.
