I’ve revisited this cocktail and tweaked the recipe, to include a volume for the ginger beer. The previous recipe:
60ml (2oz) London dry gin
22.5ml (¾oz) Cherry (brandy) liqueur
45ml ( 1½oz) Orange juice (freshly squeezed)
Top up with Ginger beer
Thank you very much! Much appreciated :)
I find instructions like "top up" extremely frustrating. Not everyone uses the same glasses and the same method to make. I often to multiple servings in one and then fill glasses with it. A guideline on how much ginger beer is recommended would be very useful.
Amaretto liqueur, Orange juice, Sugar syrup 'rich' (2:1), Lime juice, Lemon juice
Is there an alternative to this drink that does not include so much ice? I really love the flavor of this drink but the amount of ice in the drink makes it a very fleeting experience. I would be really interested in something that has the "standard" amount of ice, like a big cube, maybe.
Can you just leave out the egg and bitters if you want to simplify it (and don't like bitter stuff)? Or would the ratio be different?
Can you do this with lemon or lime juice instead?
