Clover Club Cocktail

Clover Club Cocktail thethreedrinkers.com the three drinkers

A classic cocktail that has been around since at least the 1910s, the Clover Club Cocktail is rich, silky and has a wonderful balance of sweet and sour. To be honest there is nothing not to like about this pretty pink cocktail. Be warned, once you’ve had one you’ll be hooked!

Ingredients

50 ml gin, we used Fifty Pounds Gin
20 ml lemon juice
20 ml raspberry syrup, we used Monin raspberry syrup
1 egg white
2 raspberries, to garnish

Method

  1. Add the ingredients to a shaker, and shake vigorously without ice for around 30 seconds or until the egg white has emulsified.

  2. Add ice and shake again until the drink is well-chilled.

  3. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Thread a couple of raspberries onto a cocktail stick and balance on top.

  4. Sip and enjoy!

    N.B. Instead of raspberry syrup, you can muddle 3 or 4 fresh raspberries and 15ml simple syrup (1 part sugar, 1 part water).
