Yields 10 servings
For the Clementine Cordial (yields 750ml)
300ml fresh clementine juice
200ml recently pressed lemon juice
500g caster sugar
To make the Premix (yields 850ml, enough for 10)
400ml good quality vodka
100ml classic gin
150ml peach liqueur
200ml citrus syrup (see above)
Fresh cranberries, to garnish
Mandarin essential oil, to finish
Directions
To prepare the Cordial: Put the listed components into a saucepan, heat until it reaches a gentle boil, mixing so the sugar melts. Then, turn off the stove and leave to cool down fully. Decant into a clean bottle, cap it and store chilled, it can be stored for up to one month.
Preparing the Cocktail Base: Mix every spirits and syrup into one big jug, leave to sit for 60 minutes, then pass it through preferably using a fine cloth, so it's fully clarified.
When ready to serve: Pour 85ml of your premix into your cocktail shaker packed with ice, and stir lightly for a minute to chill. Pour to a cold coupe glass or a similar vessel, garnish with some cranberries and complete it using a light spray of the essential oil above the glass.
