The Bikini Cocktail

Serves 10 guests

To make the Clementine Syrup (produces 750ml)

300ml recently pressed clementine juice
200ml recently pressed lemon juice
500g fine sugar

To make the Cocktail (yields 850ml, enough for 10)

400ml decent vodka
100ml London dry gin
150ml peach-flavored liqueur
200ml clementine cordial (as made above)
A few cranberries, for garnish
Mandarin essential oil, as a final touch

Directions

To prepare the Syrup: Combine the listed items in a pot, heat until it reaches a gentle boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. After that, turn off the burner and leave to cool completely. Decant to a sealable bottle, cap it and store in the fridge, it will last for up to a month.

For the Premix: Combine the specified liquids into a sizeable container, let it rest for one hour, then filter it preferably using cheesecloth, to ensure it's fully clarified.

To serve: Add 85ml of your premix into your mixing glass packed with ice, gently stirring gently for a minute to chill. Pour into a frosted cocktail glass or similar, top with a few cranberries and complete it by giving it a quick spritz of mandarin oil over the drink.
