To Make the Cocktail
Ingredients
25ml Isle of Harris Gin
50ml Lemon Verbena Tea
10ml Bergamot Liqueur
Garnish
Lemon Twist
Methodology
Pour all the ingredients into a mixing glass and cubed ice.
After mixing, pour into an Isle of Harris Martini Glass and garnish with a lemon twist.
Notes
This gentle, low ABV martini, made with a blend of tea, citrus liqueur and Isle of Harris Gin still packs a flavourful punch.
Where lemon verbena leaves are hard to find, a herbal green tea works too.
