First, grab a cocktail shaker to mix everything smoothly.
I also use a jigger for precise measuring, ensuring each flavor shines.
A strainer helps keep any solids out of the drink.
A long spoon works great for stirring.
Don't forget a highball glass for serving and a lot of ice to keep it chilled.
Finally, having a citrus juicer makes squeezing fresh lemon juice easy. π
Ingredients
Gather your ingredients first. I use:
2ozElderflower cordial
1ozfresh lemon juice
2ozgrapefruit juice
Tonic water
Ice cubes
Lemon and grapefruit slices for garnishing
Fresh mint leavesoptional
These ingredients create a refreshing and tangy taste.
Instructions
Start by filling the shaker with ice cubes.
Pour in elderflower cordial, lemon juice, and grapefruit juice.
Shake it well!
Next, strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice.
Top it off with tonic water, giving it a gentle stir.
Garnish with lemon and grapefruit slices along with a mint leaf, if you like. This adds a nice touch.
Serve immediately while itβs still cold.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the amount of tonic water to suit your taste. You might use less if you want a stronger fruit flavor.I like using pink tonic for extra color.You can also experiment with different garnishes like edible flowers for a fancier look. πLet me know how your mocktail turns out!
