Ingredients
  

  • 50 ml Brockmans
  • 25 ml Homemade lime cordial*

Instructions
 

  • Add all the ingredients to a mixing glass
  • Add ice
  • Stir, stir, stir
  • Strain into a chilled coupette
  • Garnish with lime twist (or use Grapefruit)

Notes

Homemade lime cordial:

Ingredients

  • 1L mineral water
  • 450g sugar
  • 10g lime zest (grated)
  • 480ml fresh lime juice
  • 14g citric acid
  • 6g tartaric acid (optional, but increases shelf life)

Steps

  • Heat up water in a pot, add sugar and stir to dissolve over medium heat
  • Take off the heat and add lime zest and juice
  • Let it cool down to stop the cooking process (e.g. pour the mixture in a jar, and place the jar in a bowl with iced water, until cool)
  • Strain with a cheesecloth or a fine mesh, to remove all sediments
  • Add citric acid and tartaric acid, stir to dissolve
  • Bottle, and keep refrigerated
Sadly it won’t last for more than 3-4 days, unless you can vacuum pack it. This recipe makes a large batch, as that is what we used in the bar, but you can halve amounts
